ping packet size (-s option as normal user)

[Marcus Schopen]

Hi,

I have problems to use the -s option of (e.g. /bin/ping -n -s 56 -c 5 
192.168.1.12) as user nagios on my debian woody (using nagios 1.1). I 
get a "ping: Operation not permitted" error message on console. 
Webinterface shows:

PING UNKNOWN     01-27-2004 09:05:18     0d 9h 9m 30s     1/3  /bin/ping 
-n -s 56 -c 5 192.168.1.12

/bin/ping is already set to setuid root. Where can I disable the -s 
opton in nagios' configuration or make it workable forr user nagios? 
Using ping without setting package size works fine for user nagios.

Thanks,
Marcus
