Hi guys. No, it doesn't work for me neither. I have checked in Pharo 1.0 and
1.1 with both: useOldNetwork as true and false.

I have debugged a little the:

Socket ping: 'localhost'

And the problem I found is that after calling "connectNonBlockingTo:
hostAddress port: port"

 self primSocketConnectionStatus: socketHandle.

should answer something different thanUnconnected ( 0 ), like
WaitingForConnection (1)  or Connected (2)
check Socket class >> initialize

So....I should see in VM side why primSocketConnectionStatus: socketHandle.
may be returning 0 (unconnected).

Now...if I ping

 Socket ping: 'www.google.com'

The result is different as I get WaitingForConnection (1) instead of
0....but it loops forever as I always get 1 and never 2....see the loop

[(status = WaitingForConnection) and: [(msecsEllapsed := Time
millisecondsSince: startTime) < msecsDelta]]
        whileTrue: [
            semaphore waitTimeoutMSecs: msecsDelta - msecsEllapsed.
            status := self primSocketConnectionStatus: socketHandle].

in the method waitForConnectionFor: timeout ifTimedOut: timeoutBlock

I will continue to check, but my knowledge in this area is almost nil.

Cheers

Mariano
