I haven't had much > time to dig in. it's been working well for me. i've been using etherrs (raw socket) on linux. the pcap version didn't work very well for me. probablly due to some linux misconfiguration. also, if you're looking to ping, make sure that the filter compiled into etherve.c doesn't drop non-ip packets. arp is not ip. unfortunately, what you can't do is boot from a plan 9 fs. and since 9vx requires many more cycles and much more memory than drawterm, i've fallen back to that. a faster linux machine might have lead to a different decision. - erik
