I was just trying to ping my brothers computer when I was trying something out on my computer and it failed. I thought maybe there was a problem with the platform differences, being I run Ubuntu and he runs XP Pro. So I fired up my XP Pro spare rig and pinged his computer - it also failed.
Out of curiosity, within Ubuntu, I started my remote desktop client and connected to his computer via IP address.
How is it I couldn't ping his computer with an XP and Ubuntu machine, but I can remote in via IP?
