When I ping 0.0.0.0, I get replies from 69.41.141.1. I don't know but expect that's earthlink's router.

- userbinator 12y agoThat's odd... on Windows, pinging 0.0.0.0 results in "Destination specified is invalid." On *nix, the behaviour is slightly different and is supposed to ping localhost instead (confirmed on one of my Linux machines): http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/99336/how-does-ping-zero-works http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/99336/how-does-ping-...
- MichaelCrawford 12y agoDo the RFCs have anything to say about 0.0.0.0? Perhaps it is left up to the implementation, in which case both Windows and *NIX would be, strictly speaking, correct.
