If I were doing this I wouldn't want to send authorization, because it
might add a significant amount of unnecessary overhead.  Instead, I'd
request a URL which would cause a 301 response from the server.  I'd
use EchoPingHttp's 'accept_redirects' option so that a 301 is treated
as a normal response, not an error.

The accept_redirects option gives the '-R' switch to echoping, so you
need a recent version of echoping which will understand it.  The version
that I use on Debian Etch doesn't, and I had to patch EchoPingHttp.pm to
prevent the switch from being used.
