Hi there!

I have tested my system against this issue. I send you the output:

$ uname -a
        Linux hell 2.2.15 #2 Thu May 4 20:17:25 CEST 2000 i586 unknown
$ ping -c 1 -s 65690 localhost

ping: Operation not permitted

The system is a Debian 2.2.

$ which ping
/bin/ping

$ ls -la /bin/ping
-rwsr-xr-x    1 root     root        14896 Apr 24 18:00 /bin/ping

Best regards,

        scissors
