You didn't get the issue. I know very well how to call check_ping with -4 - I can do that with my local config. But check_ping -4 DOES NOT call "ping -4" - it just calls "ping". The -4 option does *NOTHING*. It basically is the same as not passing "-6". Also there is no package providing /etc/nagios-plugins/config/ping.cfg. Maybe you meant /usr/share/monitoring-plugins/templates-basic/ping.cfg ? But not really relevant at all. cheers, Stefan
