Type and version:	RTPC-ROMPC 7.3M
Display type:		apa16

What were you trying to do?
 I was trying to use the net-tools traceroute and ping from the locker
/mit/net-tools/vaxbin from a VS3100 dialup machine (e40-008-5 and 
also -7) 

What's wrong:
 When using ping I got the message:

  ping: socket: Permission denied

 and when using traceroute I got:

  traceroute: icmp socket: Permission denied


What should have happened:
 I should have been able to use the ping and traceroute commands 
as normal from that locker on those machines.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
 no relevant documentation references.
