[comp.protocols.appletalk] SE Can't See the Network - HELP!!

derosa@motcid.UUCP (John DeRosa) (01/16/91)

I have never used the word HELP! in a subject line
before but this problem is driving me insane.
 
I have an SE that refuses to see the network.
I.E. the chooser sees no zones nor printers
and TOPS and Public Folder see no other users.
 
I have tried the following things, not necessarily in
the order I tried them:
 
1) Tried another Macintosh on the same network connection - OK
2) Moved the SE to another known good network connection - No luck
3) Connected the SE to a laserwriter directly with a serial
   cable - OK
4) Connected the SE to a laserwriter with phonenet connectors - OK
5) Reloaded the system - No luck
6) Reformated the hard disk and reloaded the system - No luck
7) Boot from a virgin original apple system disk - No luck
8) Replaced the phonenet connector - No luck
9) Had the mother board replaced - No luck
10) Had repair people run the official apple diagnostic 
    programs with attendant hardware loopbacks - everything checked out OK 
11) Replaced the RAM modules - No Luck
12) Zapped the PRAM - No luck
13) Rebuilt the desktop - No Luck
14) Checked for virus's with Disinfectant 2.4 - None
15) Checked for multiple systems - None
16) Prayed - Didn't help
17) Swore - Also didn't help
18) Prayed to a different god - No luck
