weird problem with ping (I know, shame on me)

Folks,
I have a 6509 switch with a few user vlans. From the switch I can ping a
certain IP address that sits multiple hops away. From user workstations that
have this switch as their default gateway, I can't ping the same IP address.
I've checked the usual stuff - subnet mask, being able to ping the default
gateway, being able to ping other IPs, rebooting the darn PC....no change.
For clarification, when on the switch, I run extended ping with the user's
vlan as the source address. It works fine. Just can't ping from the user's
machine! Any pointers/ideas please?!

TIA
