HELO

Thanks for you response for my question. although it still haven't solved my
problem. but I am still trying. a few things I would like to say about the
suggestions received;

windows (98&2K) cannot send ping packet > 65500 bytes (using ping -l size
...) . surprising win95 was able to send max of 65520. anyway I want it to
send a packet >= 65535 in size. I got the code for ping of death from
insecure.org, compiled it under linux, it ran but it was ineffective in
crashing the machine.

about my assignment/project; I am trying to learn and do penetration
testing, and my first sub-task (not submittable) was to crash an NT box by
sending an ICMP packet size > 65535.
