The ping program has 2 components:
1. A "listening" component. This is a program oon the target machine that listens on some port (Ping's default is port 11759).
2. A "sending" component that sends messages to the listener and reports results.
If there is no listener, the sender will error out with a winsock 10057 result. Google "winsock 10057" and you get the following:
...A request to send or receive data was disallowed because the socket is not connected...
The source for ping was supplied in the code library.
If the listener and sender are on the same machine, run the ping program from 2 partitions.
