packets. This doesn't get you anywhere worth going to these days. Anyone
kknow of a fix for this limitation?

In the file /etc/master.d/ip: change the IP_TTL parameter. I changed it from 0x0f to 0x2f which seems to work fine. Then rebuild the IP and KERNEL drivers and reboot /etc/system for the change to take effect (let me know if you need more details). -- Dave Rubin Polytechnic University drubin@prism.poly.edu
