I just want to close the series of mail I've sent yesterday. The problem is now clearly identify and is coming from the echoping binary.
Just take a look on that: /usr/local/bin/echoping -h / -n 20 www.zdf.de getaddrinfo error for host: www.zdf.de Name or service not known Yet if I lunch the following command: /usr/local/bin/echoping -h / -n 20 www.zdf.de:80 it works very fine. So, the smokeping config file, in my case, for the EchoPingHttp probe has to contain the following informations: +++++ HTTP menu = HTTP title = HTTP probe = EchoPingHttp host = www.zdf.de ++++++ PROBE_CONF port = 80 without this: ++++++ PROBE_CONF port = 80 it won't work because the command line build by smokeping is: /usr/local/bin/echoping -h / -n 20 www.zdf.de with it smokeping force the command line to: /usr/local/bin/echoping -h / -n 20 www.zdf.de:80 All this has been seen with a ./somkeping --debug: first case: [EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]$ ./smokeping --debug ### fping seems to report in 1 miliseconds Launched successfully FPing: probing 4 targets EchoPingSmtp: probing 0 targets EchoPingHttp: probing 1 targets EchoPingHttps: probing 0 targets EchoPingHttp: forks 5, rounds 1, timeout 300 EchoPingHttp: executing cmd /usr/local/bin/echoping -h / -n 20 www.zdf.de EchoPingHttp: www.zdf.de: got second case: [EMAIL PROTECTED] bin]$ ./smokeping --debug ### fping seems to report in 1 miliseconds Launched successfully FPing: probing 4 targets EchoPingSmtp: probing 0 targets EchoPingHttp: probing 1 targets EchoPingHttps: probing 0 targets EchoPingHttp: forks 5, rounds 1, timeout 300 EchoPingHttp: executing cmd /usr/local/bin/echoping -h / -n 20 www.zdf.de:80 EchoPingHttp: www.zdf.de: got 0.038356 0.038370 0.038505 0.038543 0.038567 0.038590 0.038678 0.038696 0.038731 0.038740 0.038799 0.038924 0.038936 0.039048 0.039125 0.039860 0.040390 0.041240 0.057137 0.100337 Freddy. -- Freddy Frouin Responsable Supervision British Telecom / Fluxus 30, rue du Château des Rentiers 75013 Paris Tél: +33 (0)1 44 97 70 00 Fax: +33 (0)1 44 97 70 07 -- Unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Help mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archive http://www.ee.ethz.ch/~slist/smokeping-users WebAdmin http://www.ee.ethz.ch/~slist/lsg2.cgi
