I have a ethernet controller,in which the ping works fine.................

ping 192.168.1.1(my default gateway)....................i get..............

64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: seq=0 ttl=64 time=46.315 ms

the same way when i ping google with the ip address............

# ping 64.233.167.99 (google's ip address)

i get...................

PING 64.233.167.99 (64.233.167.99) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 64.233.167.99: icmp_seq=1 ttl=240 time=91.3 ms

But when i use my wireless which is eth1 to ping my default gateway

ping -I eth1 192.168.1.1

i get....................

64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: seq=0 ttl=64 time=46.315 ms

but when i ping google.......

ping -I eth1 64.233.167.99

ping hangs after that........................

As you say,if the

libnss_dns-2.7.so
libnss_dns.so.2
libnss_files-2.7.so
libnss_files.so.2

if they are not installed properly..........my ping command should fail for
both ethernet as well as my wireless..........

Why the ping is failing only for my wireless device ?

Regards,
Ram
