Greetings,
I'm in need of a simple GUI application that "monitors" a range of
hosts using ping and reports on their status by changing the panel
color for that host (i.e, green for pingable, red for unreachable).
Does anyone know of any existing opensource program that does this?
Preferably Python so I can extend it easily.
If not, what tools would you recommend I write this kind of app in?
Ping doesn't seem to be supported by Python out of the box, and the
modules I've looked at seem sketchy. I looked at Expect, and see
there's a Pexpect module available. Once I have the core
functionality nailed down, I'll probably wrap it with Tkinter.
Thanks for any advice.

You might want to take a look at Big Brother. http://www.bb4.org/
It provides a web interface. While it is not written in Python, you can add
tests in any language, including Python. If you only want 'ping' to be
used, you can remove many of the default monitoring reports.

Won't something like this work for you? http://www.gnist.org/~lars/code/ping/ping.py

I'm pretty new to C# and I'm trying to do what I believe should be a
simple thing. I want to modify a program that is using the
System.Net.NetworkInformation.Ping class to have some custom behavior.
For example I would like to do a "TCP-ping" where I try to connect to a
TCP port on a remote machine. It seems obvious to me that I should try
to derive a new Ping class (TCPPing) from the existing class so that I
can use its interfaces.

I need to do a ping scan of a subnet.
I can Enum through the IPs and do this, but it takes over 5 minutes as
I can only create 1 process at a time. Does anyone know how I can
create multiple Ping Processes so as to send out 255 pings at once?
(sort of a reverse ping flood).
FYI: using the " -n 1" switch with Ping will cause it to only send 1
ping.
Basicly the code is:

I am trying to "ping" a remote host in my C++/Redhat Linux code to
check whether that host is connected or not.
if (0 == system("ping -w 2 192.168.0.2))
But, in both cases (connected/disconnected), system call returns 0. Can
someone please show what I am doing wrong? How to check the actual
result of the ping status using C++ on Redhat linux ?
Thanks in advance.

I am programing a ping application which pings various centers . I
used timer loop and it pings one by one.
Now when i finish pinging one center it should wait for the
ping_completed function to be executed and then continue pinging
another certer.
The ping_completed function is called on completion of ping by the os
and i have no control on it .

I have an offline application that works online for some data
syncronization. For data syncronization I access a webservice. I want
to show whether my application is online or not by checking whether

If the webservice is accessible, the application is online. otherwise
it is offline

Hi all
I need a simple program that allows me to check if an IP address is
pingable. I am not going to send/receive anything to the remote host, just
check if it is visible.
Something like this:

I got the perl script which does following task.
This solution reads in a line from a text file that is passed in as input parameter 1 to a Perl script. This script will then ping the machine using TCP pings to the remote hosts echo port and will return up/down and the ping response time. A second optional attribute may be passed in that will set the default timeout for the ping response.
