[mrtg] Re: Monitoring Ping Response Times

[KELLY David (NQ)]

In th contrib directory of mrtg there is reference to a utility called ping
probe.  This will do exactly what you want, however when running on NT you
will need ping.exe fron Windows 98.  I am using MRTG to monitor about 50
devices for resopnse times.  Works well.
