Subject: [cobalt-users] no ping but ssh and http work


Can anyone explain to me why when I attempt to ping our RAQ3 I get a
"request timed out" but I can use a browser to get to the site and ssh works
getting to the site?  In the past, ping has a very reliable way to see if
the system is running?  I tried using Ping Plotter which shows the trace
route to the node and it reports that the destination is unreachable.  Yet,
I can login and view web pages.  Doing a ping on the node to its address
works of course.   Any ideas?

Perhaps bacause the ICMP UDP port used by ping is blocked?
