[clue-tech] file's there, not there...

[David L. Willson]

Here's the log.  I can't run the file, but I can see it, determine it's type, etc.  Anyone have any ideas?

sh: /usr/bin/vmware-ping: not found
sh: /usr/bin/vmware-ping: not found

We were unable to locate an unused Class C subnet in the range of private
network numbers.  For each subnet that we tried we received a response to our
ICMP ping packets from a host at the network address intended for assignment to
this machine.  Because no private subnet appears to be unused you will need to
explicitly specify a network number by hand.

What will be the IP address of your host on the private
network? <break>
