Well - anyone could compile a fresh version; or copy a version from another machine into his home dir or /tmp; but if you ignore that type of level of ability in your user a small obstacle would be: # ls -l /sbin/ping -r-sr-xr-x 1 root wheel 421060 Apr 28 15:49 /sbin/ping # chmod a-rx /sbin/ping which makes it executable only to the owner and those member of wheel. Which users generally are not. But ping is not exactly a dangerous command - so why worry about it ?
