> In FD_SOCK.setupPingSocket(), a new socket is created to the peer:
> ping_sock=new Socket(dest.getIpAddress(), dest.getPort());
> If the IP packets are discarded at the IP level (e.g. by a firewall), the TCP connection will not get established, but will not fail either ! 
> SOLUTION: use a socket timeout
