Under VMS (version 5.2), what privileges does PING require? Tech Support at Wollongong told me it was cmkrnl, but, when ping image is installed with that privilege, this message appears when trying to use ping (from regular user account; works fine from system account): $ ping _node_ ping: socket: Permission denied I've played with it, and, will ping work when installed with only the sysprv privilege? Thanks for any help. -------------------------- Esther Lumsdon -------------------------------- lumsdon@dtoa1.dt.navy.mil lumsdon@dtrc.dt.navy.mil lumsdon%dtrc.navy.mil@uunet.uu.net "Wherever you go, there you are" -Buckaroo Bonzai
