ping problem

Hi guys I restarted I tried to ping a PC on my LAN and voila:

]# ping 192.168.10.55
PING 192.168.10.55 (192.168.10.55) 56(84) bytes of data.
ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted
ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted
ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted
ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted
ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted

"It is certainly NOT a hardware problem, and the other computer can ping the linux box"


I know I messed up badly somewhere but could anybody please tell me where??

"Operation not permitted" generally means your user doesn't have permission.

Try it as root?
