Works on a friggin Mac too:

$ ping 202.83.176.255

round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 289.899/292.065/294.230/2.166 ms
Mac uses BSD TCP/IP and hence it MUST work... if it doesn't than it must be a user error
Windows uses portions of the BSD TCP/IP stack too. Your point?

maybe the bolded word above would better help you understand the point.

I remember you now -- Mr. Layer 2 router...

BTW, nice try. The TCP/IP stack used by MS was rewritten and contains zero code directly from the BSD stack. I just wanted to see if you'd bite...again.

Some of the TCP/IP utilities in MS contains BSD code -- and even the copyrights -- but the stack was completely rewritten.

Come back when you aren't so wet behind the ears. lol

Is there a way to ban redhatnation, or do we only get to ignore him?

We have enough misinformation here with out spreading it deliberately.
