  Non-privileged access to PING? 
 The Question is:
 
what account privileges are necessary to ping from an
otherwise unprivileged account...with netmbx and tmpmbx
all I get is:
%UCX-E-CRSOCK, Error in creating a socket
%SYSTEM-F-NOPRIV, insufficient privilege or
 object protection violation
 
 
 The Answer is:
 
  PING requires OPER privilege. You can permit otherwise unprivileged users
  to execute PING by installing the image with privilege:
 
     INSTALL ADD SYS$SYSTEM:UCX$PING.EXE/OPEN/HEADER/SHARED/PRIV=(OPER)
 
  As a general rule, the installation of commands with extra privileges is
  not recommended.  (In this case, the Wizard believes that the installation
  of the UCX$PING image with OPER privilege will be generally harmless.)
