Hi Erik,

The number of leaked file descriptors was growing for me. It started at
21 and grew into the 60's after 5 or so minutes. I also had defunct ping
processes. This would also spike the sessions in my firewall to over
1000. I am running the following command on 47 devices every 60
seconds...

check_ping -H ${dev/manageIp} -w 300,20% -c 500,50% -p 2 -t 2 | sed 's/,
RTA = /|RTA=/'

This is version 1.1.0 from source.


I'm using check_ping because I would like a graph of ping times to these
devices since I often get asked what the latency is.
