ping 0.000 ms

[Carlos Rodrigues <carlos.efr@mail.telepac.pt>]

Hi!

So, here we have two alphas running Debian Sarge, an AlphaStation XP1000 
(EV67 666MHz) and an AlphaServer ES40 (4xEV67 666MHz), both with similar 
installs. The XP1000 has a 2.4.27-2-generic kernel and the ES40 has 
2.4.27-2-smp.

Problem is, on the ES40 every ping to any host on the local network 
gives back an RTT of 0.000 ms...

On the XP1000 ping gives the appropriate small values as expected.

So, what's going on here? I've tried googling and didn't find any 
explanation (although I found some things that tell me that I'm not the 
first seeing this issue).
