>2. I tried using the PING.NET.SYS to ping an IP address, but I don't

I beleive you need a special capability like NS or something to
do this. It works fine when I run it from Manager.sys. If it just
returns, without any message, that means you don't have the
right capability.

Note it only pings by IP, not by name. For names, you must
use the PING buried in NETTOOL.
