( doubtfull ) This looks like the answer from your primary server has been sent to the Solaris box, but the program that originally sent out the query on `solaris' has closed this socket (due to a timeout, perhaps), so the answer will be thrown away now. AFAIK, ping -v prints all ICMP messages, hence it's normal that you see them even though they are unrelated to the ping itself. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
