Sorry to be back again. My mail and browser work, and I can ping as root. When I try to ping as a user I get:

ping: icmp open socket: Operation not permitted

There is probably a group that I need to add to my profile, but it was not obvious to me. Suggestions welcome. Is there a way to
add groups to my account without using system-config-users?

Where are these things documented?

Thanks,
Don

Don, what are the permissions on /bin/ping (ls -al /bin/ping)?  Mine are set to 755 (-rwxr-xr-x) and ping works for me as non-root.

My protections are the same as yours. As I read the error message, I think that the problem is not being able to open the socket.

ping: icmp open socket: Operation not permitted

Thanks,
don
