I didn't start this thread, but sure had a lot of fun with it :)
Jeremy's ping needed just a little touch up and it worked great.

Messing with raw sockets, I was able to watch a hacker attack on my system.
My defensive software was ringing bells and whistles. The .py I was
debugging started printing some interesting stuff. It was an RPC port probe
coming in.
