And people tend to forget that ping is a networking tool, trying to use it for other purposes. e.g. If I ping the print server on my LAN, all I'm doing it testing that there's some network connection between me and the machine running the print server. It doesn't actually test the print server. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
