Hi!
Could someone shed more light on this? When I ping my Mac from Solaris, I
get the following result:

hobbes% ping -s linus

When I ping the Solaris machine from my Mac I get the following result:

Any comments??
Also, running WinSock (on my portable) with SuperTCP for Windows will not
ping certain Solaris machines! (the MacPing works!)
