I am running Smoketrace out of smokeping 2.4.1 and have just installed it on 
opensuse 11.1.  I'm not using any of the smokeping polling or graphing, I'm 
just interested in the SmokeTrace application. I have had it working on a 
slackware 11 install. 

The Problem: 
I get the Smoketrace interface loaded in the browser window, with the correct 
IP address, however when it tries to start pinging, it pauses for a few seconds 
and then displays the message: "unable to create ICMP send socket: Operation 
not permitted"  

I have searched through the code for SmokeTrace (TR.pm) and can't find anything 
that would even be giving that error. 

I have tried to run the traceroute as a user on the machine, and as root, no 
problems .  I don't get any errors in the apache logs.  I have tried shutting 
off AppArmor (Suse application based firewall)  and the Firewall, nothing has 
helped.  I have tried looking on google, but nothing has come up through google 
or this mailing list archives.  any hints as to other places to look for the 
problem? 

Are there any debug options that can be turned on to get a little more 
information as to where this error message is coming from so I can try to get 
it working? 

Thanks for any sugestions.
