[phenomlab]

@linuxbeginner Can you provide the output of iptables -L ? It sounds very much like you are using SELINUX - which OS ?

[A Former User]

@phenomlab I am using ZorinOS 16 based on ubuntu and I have just uninstalled iptables.

[phenomlab]

@linuxbeginner Typically, this means that you are not allowed to send ICMP packets. Are you sure you have removed iptables ?

[A Former User]

@phenomlab Yes sir I removed it with sudo apt remove iptables
see

[phenomlab]

@linuxbeginner Try sudo apt install --reinstall iputils-ping and then re-try

[A Former User]

@phenomlab Still same issue.

[phenomlab]

@linuxbeginner Are you using a VPN ?

[A Former User]

@phenomlab I was using cloudflare warp now I disabled it but still the same issue.

[phenomlab]

@linuxbeginner It’s not disabled. The IP address you logged in from here belongs to Cloudflare, so it’s still connected

[A Former User]

@phenomlab It’s disabled I checked on whatismyip and it is showing correct location now.

[phenomlab]

@linuxbeginner Then really the only thing we have left is permissions.

Try sudo chmod 4711 /usr/bin/ping then attempt the ping again

[A Former User]

@phenomlab Still same

Note to everyone else here. This user was formally banned from metabullet.com for abusing the service, and as a result, has been banned here also. Quite why this person thought it was ok to come here under the guise of an account he’d previously used at metabullet.com and hope I wouldn’t notice is beyond me.

If you abuse my services once, you won’t get to use them again - period.
