I installed the one-click version on Windows (XP) recently and am learning Smalltalk.  I am under the impression that in a Shout Workspace I can execute the line

Socket ping: 'localhost'

(or some valid address).  But I always get a message that it timed out.  I can successfully ping the same address in a command window.  Any guidance would be appreciated.
