Sam,

Typically the ping program included with Linux has the -f option, but
you cannot use it if you are not root.

It's included in debian and redhat, not sure about other distros.

I don't have root access on any Sun boxes, so I can't tell if the option
is there or not.  You could always compile GNU ping on it if it's not an
option.

Thanks,
Shawn
