Winning response... thank you. I changed the security level from 4 to 3 and can now ping and ssh to the new server. But now I have another question... Is there a way to use a higher security level and tweak it to enable certain types of access. E.g., I don't really care about not having ping, but would like to have ssh. I see a couple of files (security.4 and security.5) in /etc/security/msec... is it possible that the .4 and .5 correspond to levels and lists what's allowed?
