nosuid, secure TCP/IP ping

Back to search · Project homepage

Description

Nosuid TCP/IP ping is a small, secure replacement for the original ping command. Unlike its setuid counterpart, it won't allow flood-pings, security compromises and other typical problems. It uses TCP syn-rst challenge/response instead of ICMP echo and echo-reply.
