Re: ping duplicate packets



Note that you also could get dupes as a result of the client PC, i.e. the
one FROM which you are pinging your Linux machine.

I saw this happen a couple times at my old job... a kid was pinging a host
from a Win95 PC and was getting dupes... it turned out that he had Client
for Microsoft Networks in there twice, and bound to TCP/IP both times... we
took out the extra one and he was fine.
