[Openswan Users] Odd Ping time values

[Arjun Datta]

Hi,

I've established a VPN tunnel between

2.6.23.12-52.fc7
Linux Openswan U2.4.7/K2.6.23.12-52.fc7 (netkey)
10.249.x.x

and

2.6.17-1.2142_FC4
Linux Openswan U2.3.1/K2.6.17-1.2142_FC4 (netkey)
10.241.x.x

When I ping a machine on the other subnet from a machine on one subnet I 
get 4 replies but some of them are always a really large positive or 
really large negative number.

I have tried this from various machines.  The machines are all windows 
though so I suspect it may be a windows problem.

Is this normal or something I should worry about ?
