  Added files:
    net/scotty3/files    patch-unix:nmicmpd.c 
  Log:
  If you attempt to send an ICMP echo to a host on the same ethernet
  subnet, and that host is down/turned off, the Tnm::icmp echo command
  will fail rather than return an unreachable indication on some
  occasions.  This is because the nmicmpd program will occasionally
  get an EHOSTDOWN error when doing a sendto() when the ARP entry
  resolution times out.
  
  This is a problem since this API can support a list of hosts to
  send traffic to, and a single error as described will abort the
  entire operation.
  
  (The reviewer claims that he could not duplicate the problem,
  but that the patch seems like a good idea anyway.)
