Hello, I digged a bit deeper, and on my Windows System surefire 1.20.1 is failing because of this new „ping“ behavior:
http://maven.apache.org/surefire/maven-surefire-plugin/examples/shutdown.html Looks like a bug that surefire is not falling back when wmic is not found (or better search for it), however after I fixed my PATH to include c:\Windows\System32\wbem the new surefire also works. -> the downgrade is wrong. Since I commited on the wrong tag again, can somebody rename it and copy the Revision 1811361 from rc2 again? Gruss Bernd
