What were you trying to do?
ping a host in Korea.
What's wrong:
Ping outputs more information that it should:
~> /etc/ping sarah.kist.re.kr
icp->icmp_type (3) != ICMP_ECHOREPLY (0)
icp->icmp_type (3) != ICMP_ECHOREPLY (0)
icp->icmp_type (3) != ICMP_ECHOREPLY (0)
icp->icmp_type (3) != ICMP_ECHOREPLY (0)
icp->icmp_type (3) != ICMP_ECHOREPLY (0)
(it keeps output that line continuously).
What should have happened:
According to the manual page:
Typing ``ping host'' without any options will either report ``host is
alive'' or ``no answer from host''. To get more statistics use the -l
option or one of the other options.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
