If the clocks aren't synchronized, your RTTs will be correct, but the rest of it won't. > On a sidenote, could someone provide me the correct syntax for an > RPING/RPONG combination? I can't seem to make much of this either.. That's because there are 4 (!) different kinds of messages used to implement RP[IO]NG--2 kinds of RPING and 2 kinds of RPONG. They're differentiated by the number of arguments. It's not something I'm prepared to explain right now, but the basic function is this-- * oper sends RPING, which gets routed to first server * first server receives RPING and sends the second kind of RPING to the target server * target server replies with first kind of RPONG * first server receives RPONG and sends the second kind of RPONG back to the originating oper You think this is complicated--I had to figure it out from the source while recoding m_rping.c and m_rpong.c at one point! -- Kevin L.
