3. how to do I stop the server from responding to pinging? Running FreeBSD 4.2 and 6.1. I changed the /etc/rc.network file to "NO" for broadcast ping responses, and this did not work (still responding to ping) when I rebooted: case ${icmp_bmcastecho} in [Yy][Ee][Ss]) echo -n ' broadcast ping responses=NO' sysctl net.inet.icmp.bmcastecho=1 >/dev/null ;; ____________________________________________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
