Ping uses ICMP packets to go around. Your linux box, when it receives ping requests, *could* respond claiming it did not support the service, but that in itself is sometimes considered a security problem -- it broadcasts that you exist. So your linux box is silently receiving this info and ignoring it. Probably your problem. Tell me if you already thought of this, and I'm way off base. As far as the other matters, can't help you much. -Brian -- +---------------------------------------------------------------+ | FAQ: http://qsilver.queensu.ca/~fletchra/Circle/list-faq.html | | Archives: http://post.queensu.ca/listserv/wwwarch/circle.html | | Newbie List: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/circle-newbies/ | +---------------------------------------------------------------+
