    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.

    Code:
    memset((void*)icmpdata, 0, 60);
    All you need is the address of the icmp data element in the structure that you are going to send.
    Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.

    memset() function fills the first n bytes of the memory area pointed to be s with the constant byte c. so the memset does the 123 to 0000000000123 or to 1230000000000. i want to do the second one
