i belive this is an old problem since this is not the first time i heard
about it.

ping ing with ping -R from through a firewall machine make the firewall go
into kernel panic
tried to kill idle task
not syncing

etc. etc.

does anyone know a fix for the problem ?

or a set of rules that will fix the problem ?

i believe ping -R works only on about nine hops... what bothers me
is that nine hops can be a lot of subnets :(

Thanks for any help
