Hy everybody.
I got several responses but couldn't figure out why
ping was setting the 0.0.0.0 as source address
in its echo request packet.This happend whith IP
outside our entire class.
And in the archives there is a posting with the
name "Weired ping results"
He has the same problem and rebooting solved that.
So did i , and now is every thing ok.
Propably some patch is needed but i couldn't find any hint any way
Thanks
Hysen

Hi again
In reality my worry about this is why the source address of outgoing
packet is different(0.0.0.0) in the case of IP-s outside my class ,as
yahoo.com is
and others i hava tried , and in the second case when i got the hostname
temp2.atnet.com.al.
Could be the case i can not ping the pingable hosts??
But i can ping the hosts in my subbnet.
ping 209.239.77.98
The out put of tcpdump is as follows
---------------------------------------
12:38:19.821689 0.0.0.0 > 209.239.77.98: icmp: echo request
12:38:20.821689 0.0.0.0 > 209.239.77.98: icmp: echo request
12:38:21.824618 0.0.0.0 > 209.239.77.98: icmp: echo request
12:38:22.832431 0.0.0.0 > 209.239.77.98: icmp: echo request
12:38:23.838290 0.0.0.0 > 209.239.77.98: icmp: echo request
12:38:24.844150 0.0.0.0 > 209.239.77.98: icmp: echo request
-----------------------------------------
And in deed when i try
ping 195.22.199.230 (this ip is of our class) the output is
---------------------------------------------------
12:39:40.988681 temp2.atnet.com.al > 195.22.199.230: icmp: echo request
12:39:41.994540 temp2.atnet.com.al > 195.22.199.230: icmp: echo request
12:39:43.000400 temp2.atnet.com.al > 195.22.199.230: icmp: echo request
12:39:44.006259 temp2.atnet.com.al > 195.22.199.230: icmp: echo request
12:39:45.012118 temp2.atnet.com.al > 195.22.199.230: icmp: echo request
12:39:46.018954 temp2.atnet.com.al > 195.22.199.230: icmp: echo request
