Well, it looks like you have a major problem here because the
configuration looks ok.  I can only suggest a couple of things to try:

1.  Check the length of the connections for C & D.  If they are like >
15 feet from the backbone, you may want to try shortening them.

2.  Try swapping A with C and D to see if it might be the machines.

3.  Buy a copy of Kinetics' LAN Ranger and/or Farallon's CheckNet and
TrafficWatch to get a bird's-eye view of what is happening.

4.  Check for software installed on C and D that is not on the others.

It seems really strange that C and D can see the LaserWriter but not
the other zones.
