in thread Net::Ping broken on Solaris?

No further clue atm; and - if it's broken, u-fix-it :-)

But it might be the case that binding a socket to an interface just isn't possible on Solaris.

Why is interface binding necessary?

--shmem 

_($_=" "x(1<<5)."?\n".q·/)Oo.  G°\        /
                              /\_¯/(q    /
----------------------------  \__(m.====·.(_("always off the crowd"))."·
");sub _{s./.($e="'Itrs `mnsgdq Gdbj O`qkdq")=~y/"-y/#-z/;$e.e && print}

    Sorry for not being back for a while... :-( Because the script is part of a monitoring system, and he needs to check that a device is reachble from that specific interface.

    Hmm... I guess that, unless he already solved the problem, I'll have to try a patch :-D. Thanks anyway!

    Ciao!

    In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.
