I tried the above as well. However, when I pinged my box, it returns 255 as ttl value. Is it because of ICMP? I want other people to ping my box, it returns 125.

Why it is 64 but not 255? Are there somewhere in the Kernel that I can change both 64 and 255 to 125?
I am a newbie, never mess with the Kernel before, but I would like to give it a try.
