All,
I have been working with some ICMP code, and have noticed a few wierd things I cant figure out.
When I start the prog. It hesitates at the sent bytes message.
As soon as I start a standard ping from an other shell window I get replies on both ICMP requests.
Why is this side affect happening and how could I repair this issue.
Thanks in advance,
MGP
