Bridged Networking Not Working NAT OK

I am running WS 6.03 on an XP SP2 host with a Win2003 EE Guest. Networking with NAT is fine but bridged networking fails. I can acquire an address via DHCP, but cannot ping my default gateway. My Host OS can ping my guest but not the other way around. I have tried turning off automatic bridging without luck.

Firewall on your XP SP2?

Or MAC security enabled on your physical network switch that host is plugged into.
