Ping is in the iputils package. |
I just noticed that I have no "ping" utility on my Red Hat Linux 6.2 installation. I check another system which is still running 6.1 and found that ping is a part of the netkit-base package in that version. I checked my 6.2 CDROM and found that there is no netkit-base*{i386,src}.rpm. I also checked a number of mirror sites and didn't find it there either. What has happened to ping? It seems that "inetd" now has its own package, but I can't figure out where ping went.
