    sorry to have given that impression, I'm not trying for redundant
    network connections. I suppose I'm just gathering data in order to
    learn about ping.

    glad to know that my experiment is doomed to failure, that's valuable
    data (err, that might sound sarcastic but I'm serious).

    since the experiment is flawed, I'll drop it in favor of two
    experiments. experiments #1 and #2 are, lets say, unrelated to each
    other.

    experiment #1:

    ping from the arrakis built-in NIC to caladan.

    experiment #2:

    ping from the arrakis D-Link NIC to caladan.

    there are obvious similarities, but for my purposes the experiments
    are totally independant of each other.

    All I'm looking for at this stage is to be able to reproduce the
    (succesful) results. is that a better approach?

    thanks,

    Thufir
