Enable all access to root user in buster (ex: ping not working)

[Schlew]

Hi,

After the successfull installation of debian Buster, I noticed that root user can't use the ping command (socket: Permission denied). Normal user can use it (with command sudo ping result is the same as root user). Any idea to enable this for root user? Thanks a lot. Schlew

Similar problem, but pinging in general does not work. Using Arch.

I answer myself: add these two line in etc/group: inet:x:3003:root net_raw:x:3004:root and reboot! Hope this help!

:x: = ": x :" without space and "

Sadly this did not work for me: /etc/group

inet:x:3003:root
net_raw:x:3004:root

My problem is that ping does not even output anything, it's like it has frozen. Btw, I use Arch.

It seems that ping command itself is not working for me, but using node.js with icmp module it seems that it is working. It seems that there's an issue with arch ping command or something else, if someone has the same problem you might want to try installing bwping (c, seems to work for me, does not have same interface as an usual ping) or 2ping (python, did not work for me).
