I see in the archives that you can set the ICMP packet size for ping checks in the registry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\DBU Consulting\Servers Alive\PingSize. The note was sent back in 2004, so I'm curious if the location has changed, as it would seem to make sense under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\DBU Consulting\Servers Alive\Ping\PingSize. I looked through the documentation and couldn't find any reference to it, so could it be added?
Additionally, I ran into a strange situation where I was working with Servers Alive on machine where the mapped drive for some typical windows locations as indicated in HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders wasn't mapped. When I was modifying the settings through the setup button in Servers Alive, any time I clicked the OK button, I'd be presented with a error 76 Path does not exist error message. After clicking OK, the gui would disappear, but the task serversalive.exe would remain in the task list. This isn't a terrible problem as it is fairly unlikely to occur under normal use, but was very frustrating until I figured out what path it wanted. I pored through the registry settings looking for the path it didn't like and couldn't find a path that didn't exist - all paths set in the registry pointed to c:\data\salive, which does exist.
