Workstation missing from workgroup

[atang]

I have this workstation attach to a novell server with
other ws (98se-chinese). All ws are set to the same workgroup.
All workstations (actually 5 of them only) can see each other but
this one. All ws can see the novell server including this one.
(This could not be a hardware problem, right? )
I remember that it had worked before (everyone can see each
other) but somehow it is not now. Any idea what's gone wrong?
The next thing I think I will try is to set the Control Panel->network->
again and if not setup the whole machine again, (it is a new one
and I can afford to do so) but I hope I can get a second opinion first.

Thanks for inputting.

My guess ... LOL ... since it is a add-on to the system net, you have not given access to the others from the other terminals even though you gave access from the server (by default).

When you set them all up at one time this information has to be changed if you do not want to give access to another terminal, however when you add on a terminal after the fact, then the existing terminals do not know it it there, and see it as an "outsider" so to speak.

I might be wrong but that is my thoughts this EARLY in the morning. I am waiting to see what the gurus say myself NOW, he he!
