Yeah, that's what I figured.

The Windows PC (XP Home Edition) is configured to get its network
settings automatically via DHCP.  When I run "ipconfig /all" in a
command window on that PC, all the settings (IP address, default
gateway, subnet mask, etc) look the way they should.

I can post a copy of the server's dhcpd.conf (or any other
information) if anyone's interested in seeing it, though I won't be
able to do that until this evening.
