Huh? Ping is icmp/ip (no tcp). So only link level fragmentation (MTU issues) could possibly occur. If the return was incomplete, the ip packet would never be sent to icmp so that should look like a lack of return. If still in doubt, set the size on the ping to something smaller (the size value is the payload within icmp so add about 25 to get the IP packet size). tim -----Original Message----- From: windows2000-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:windows2000-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Phillip Newberry Sent: Wednesday, May 31, 2006 9:18 PM To: windows2000@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [windows2000] Re: Ping means fragmented packets --- Sorin Srbu <sorin.srbu@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Mike Dillinger <> wrote on Tuesday, May 30, 2006 > 8:17 PM: > > Never occured to me to google for "negative time". > I'll look into this.
