windump.exe -i blah host 130.75.103.223 and host 130.75.102.221 and not tcp
gives me just an arp who-has and reply.

windump.exe -i blah port 7000 and udp
turns up nothing when I click on directories on the "problem" fileserver
and plenty of traffic when I browse the "good" fileserver (130.75.103.221).

The servers have private interfaces too, which are on a different subnet
and not connected to the rest. The fileservers have been told to ignore
these interfaces via NetInfo/NetRestrict.
