Just a quick question on ping. I was playing around with ping the other day.I have three boxes, SunOSon a 3/60 at 192.168.0.3, fbsd at 192.168.0.2 and a win95 on 192.168.0.1 When I do a ping from the fbsd or sun machine on address, 192.168.0 or 192.168.0.255 I only get returns from the localhost I ping from and the other unix machine, the 95 box stays quiet. Not that I care as a ping to 192.168.0.1 works, but I just find it curious why the 95 machine doesnt respond to a broadcast ping? output from a ping on the fbsd box: PING 192.168.0 (192.168.0.0): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 192.168.0.2: icmp_seq=0 ttl=255 time=2.709 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.0.3: icmp_seq=0 ttl=255 time=7.189 ms (DUP!) 64 bytes from 192.168.0.2: icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=1.337 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.0.3: icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=2.752 ms (DUP!) 64 bytes from 192.168.0.2: icmp_seq=2 ttl=255 time=1.269 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.0.3: icmp_seq=2 ttl=255 time=2.685 ms (DUP!) 64 bytes from 192.168.0.2: icmp_seq=3 ttl=255 time=1.367 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.0.3: icmp_seq=3 ttl=255 time=2.791 ms (DUP!) 64 bytes from 192.168.0.2: icmp_seq=4 ttl=255 time=1.269 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.0.3: icmp_seq=4 ttl=255 time=2.690 ms (DUP!) 64 bytes from 192.168.0.2: icmp_seq=5 ttl=255 time=1.264 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.0.3: icmp_seq=5 ttl=255 time=2.678 ms (DUP!) 64 bytes from 192.168.0.2: icmp_seq=6 ttl=255 time=1.284 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.0.3: icmp_seq=6 ttl=255 time=2.842 ms (DUP!) 64 bytes from 192.168.0.2: icmp_seq=7 ttl=255 time=1.383 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.0.3: icmp_seq=7 ttl=255 time=2.797 ms (DUP!) --- 192.168.0 ping statistics --- 8 packets transmitted, 8 packets received, +8 duplicates, 0% packet loss round-trip min/avg/max = 1.264/2.394/7.189 ms I get the exact same results when using 192.168.0.255.
