1.0-1 ping problem


Hello,

When I run ping as the administrator on my Win2K box, it works fine but as
a regular user, I get the following.

ping: socket: operation not permitted

I added the u+s permission to the ping executable and now I get (from a
regular user account):

PING supernova (127.0.0.1): 56 data bytes
sendto: Operation not permitted
ping: wrote supernova 64 chars, ret=-1
ping: recvfrom: Invalid argument
ping: recvfrom: Invalid argument
... (ad infinitum)

I have tried reinstalling ping but I get the same problems. Any
suggestions? Attached in my cygcheck -s -v -r.

Thank you for your help,

Paul
