? no output from netselect

Hi,

I wonder why I do not get any output from 'netselect'. I tried the following commands, but I do not get any output.

Add -v -vv debug options... for me, netselect times out on all hosts. No idea why... everything else works.

Possibly routing probs? Maybe the "-m" and "-t" (for minimal TTL and retrys) help?

No, -m and -t changes nothing. It times out all the same.

As for routing probs, I don't know what kind of problems those could be. Everything else works fine (ping / www / ftp / mail / ssh / irc / dcc / voip / games), dns name resolution is working beautifully as well. I can ping hosts such as Google and get min/avg/max/mdev = 37.618/66.155/144.155/34.259 ms response times, which should be good enough.

I'm absolutely clueless as to what the problem could be here.

I am also seeing this same thing. When I ping the servers I get results but when I netselect the same list of servers that I can ping nothing happens. I did a netselect -s1 -vv <server list> and I got more information. But basically it is saying that none of the packets it sent worked (ntp1.sf-bay.org 9999 ms 30 hops 0% ok) on any of the servers. Wish I knew what was going on so that I could fix it.
