ping with usec resolution
I'm looking for a ping with usec (microsecond) resolution (as Redhat 7.2 is using). Could FreeBSD have it too? Anyone got the source for it? We want to build up a small experiment for students to measure the speed of light using ping. Found this neat story on the net btw. http://ftp.arl.mil/~mike/ping.html -- Chris Christoph P. U.
