Yes, I was going with your suggestion that you could see it on the IP address, but not by name. That would indicate that the NetBios service is not running (or is having some problem) Since you corrected that it's not working at all it's something else.
Still what do you get when on the cocktail command prompt you type:
nbtstat -n
FrizzleFried:
See attached for the results from the COCKTAIL PC.
The OFFICE PC lists this:
OFFICEPC <00> UNIQUE Registered
MSHOME <00> GROUP Registered
OFFICEPC <20> UNIQUE Registered
MSHOME <1E> GROUP Registered
MSHOME <1D> GROUP Registered
..__MSBROWSE__.<01> GROUP Registered
Not sure why there are 3 MSHOMEs or 2 OFFICEPC's...

OK, that seems fine.
Are you really really sure that there isn't a firewall somehow active on the cocktail PC? That's the only explanation I can think off as to how ping traffic is blocked in one direction only.
BTW if you have Windows XP Home running on the cocktail it could very well be that you have reduced functionality on the name resolution (ie computer won't show up automatically in the browser) and "net view" might not work either. Still "\\cocktail" should work (if you have file and printer sharing switched on and all computers are in the same group and no firewall is blocking traffic etc etc etc)
