Hi,
I just tried to setup the DNS.pm probe from within smokeping 1.20 but had
several problems:
as far as I can tell, seems like somthing gets parsed wrong (string msec
instead of value):
--- cut ---
> /usr/local/smokeping/bin/smokeping --debug
### assuming you are using an IOS reporting in miliseconds
### dig seems to report in miliseconds
### fping seems to report in 1 miliseconds
Launched successfully
IOSPing: probing 0 targets
EchoPingHttps: probing 0 targets
EchoPingHttp: probing 0 targets
FPing: probing 0 targets
EchoPing: probing 0 targets
EchoPingSmtp: probing 0 targets
DNS: probing 6 targets
Argument "msec" isn't numeric in sort at /usr/local/smokeping/lib/probes/DNS.pm
line 100.

...(20 times which is my "pings" value)...
--- cut ---
my dig output looks like this:
--- cut ---

I've changed line 90 in DNS.pm from
push @times, (split /\s+/)[4];
to push @times, (split /\s+/)[3];
which seems to solve this at least this error but I still cannot get anything
reasonable from it; it seems to report values which are about 20-30 msec's too
high. I also played around some more but I'm no perl guru; could it eventually
be the DNS.pm isn't quite elaborated yet ? has anybody running this and
verified the results ?
