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.

Yesterday I built a new system on another disk that allows ping to
work
as expected. My system crashed once,o a few thing must have been
"disturbed". I was trying to figure out how t repair it.

Smells like an selinux thing. Check your logs to see if you're getting
AVC denials. If so, you may need to relabel.
Rick,
Where are the seliunx messages logged? I looked in /var/log/secure
and the only thing I saw was a notice of when I used sudo to
test ping. What would I need to relabel? I am a dunce on security
issues.

They'd be in /var/log/messages if that's what's happening. You can
"touch /.autorelabel" to force a full autorelabel on reboot. That can
take some time.

Thanks. I tried that as you had mentioned it yesterday. I tried a new version 3.2.3-2 of the kernel, but it will not handle my radeon chip set. Still at 3.1.9-1. All I touch appears broken:-(
