I can only suggest a couple of things to try: 1. Check the length of the connections for C & D. If they are like > 15 feet from the backbone, you may want to try shortening them. 2. Try swapping A with C and D to see if it might be the machines. 3. Buy a copy of Kinetics' LAN Ranger and/or Farallon's CheckNet and TrafficWatch to get a bird's-eye view of what is happening. 4. Check for software installed on C and D that is not on the others. Check for software installed on the others that is not on C and D. It seems really strange that C and D can see the LaserWriter but not the other zones. -- Jeffrey A.
