David,

These IP's go down every now and then and for no reason...I've looked and 
can't figure it out.....my Perl script will work and do the job if I could 
only get the Net::Ping module to work.  Everything is installed perfect, but 
for some reason it returns an undef value instead of a 0 or 1.

Thanks for your help though.

Kevin
