Hi,

can anybody tell me if there is some mechanism in the OpenSolaris networking 
stack which overrides choice of interface for sending ping packets, i.e. always 
on the "primary" interface. I have two examples, 

 - a raw socket (socket(AF_INET, SOCK_RAW, IPPROTO_ICMP) which is bound to a 
certain interface with IP address y.

 - a DLPI descriptor which clearly opens a certain interface x with ip y.

When sending pings with either primitive, it always sends the ping on the 
"first" interface listed by ifconfig, never on the interface with IP y.

Thanks, Rob
