If you read the man page for it you might find that fping itself places restrictions on the sorts of things that can be done by non-privilieged users, and you might discover things which can only be done by a user with root permissions. Setting the interval between packets going to an individual target to something as low as one millisecond (if that's what '-p 1' does in your version of fping - it does in at least one of mine and there isn't an '-I' switch in any of them) is the sort of thing that would usually only be done by root, as it might be considered abusive. > I would like to be able to do this kind of granularity for some > special troubleshooting I am doing.

You have acess to the full source to do whatever you wish to it, but there's a lot of fairly densely coded Perl in there and that will be hard going if you aren't an experienced Perl programmer. -- 73, Ged. _______________________________________________ smokeping-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.oetiker.ch/cgi-bin/listinfo/smokeping-users
