A Tiny Home Network.
This 2k3 box is working as a proxy server. using CCproxy as proxy server on this box.
I have 3 NICs on this Box as i dont have any router. I use NIC1 for the ISP and NIC2 for my

home network. i use NIC3 for another PC. I have only One PC connected to that NIC2.

Problem is: I have Installed SP1 on this 2k3 and now Enabled Firewall for NIC1 but NIC2 is

free from any Firewall. Workstation can Ping my Server but i cant Ping WS from the server.

Why is that? I can browse All the shared folder on WS. All the services can be accessed from that WS. ONLY PROB IS PING !!!!
Do I need to install SP2 on XP Box to ping it from the server?

Why do you think you need to ping the XP box?

XP's built-in firewall discards ping requests by default. Try checking there.
