Asking here as I cannot find any mailing list or new group for pythond. Looking for a reason why pythond under FreeDOS does not support the icmp protocol.
PythonD 2.4.2r1 for DJGPP [GCC 3.3.2] on ms-dos5 >>> import socket >>> socket.getprotobyname("icmp") Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? socket.error: protocol not found >>>socket.getprotobyname("udp") 17 Is this limitation in PythonD or FreeDOS?
