Did you try pinging its address as well as its name?
Yes. I guess I should have written that. It cannot be pinged by its IP
address.
As a test, I disabled the primary NIC and configured another NIC on the
server to use DHCP. After restarting the network, the 2nd NIC gets a DHCP
assigned address which can access the network, however the local network
cannot ping its new IP address.
This is very odd. What might be happening?
Thanks,
