Default Unable to Ping Server By Name

This is really strange One of my vista machine stopped resloved the
server by name . I can ping the server by IP address but not by name.
All the other client machines on the network can do it by both. it is
a problem because one of my programs will not work because of it Also
I can ping other client nachines on the netwrok by name and ip adress
just not my server

I can map the server machine by ip address but not name? Any ideas

Default Unable to Ping Server By Name

What are the DNS settings on that machine that can no longer ping by
name?
