Try this: #!/bin/sh for (( ; ; )) do NOW=$(date +"%T %m/%d/%Y") PING=$(ping -qc 1 example.com) echo $NOW: $PING >> pinger.log done exit 0 You can then monitor the log file using: $ tail -f pinger.log You will need to use ^C to kill the script. Hope this helps. -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?
