OK, Dave, I wanted to keep it a secret, but since you're forcing the
truth out of me...we're still on...SR9.7.  <collective Netland gasp here>

I've noticed that TCP/IP vagaries don't seem to come up with the SR10
JLRU nodes.  (Of course, there's always the possibility that you
hotshot SR10 admins are just more Unix-wise....)

I caught David Krowitz's followup--  what are the SR9 quirks?
And, BTW, SR9 does have ping.  I just haven't been exercising it thoroughly
because I didn't understand the diagnostic process well enough until
his post.

Thanks to both of you.
