Very odd, and it may just be that I'm tired and missing something very obvious.

If I ping the IP address of a newly built Windows 7 PC the response is normal.
If I ping the hostname I get a response with the MAC address being returned rather than the IP address.

The PC's are on a workgroup and the other PC's all respond ok.

The new PC has full network connectivity.

Advice?
