<p class="MsoNormal">I’ve just set up an new smokeping machine on a Centos 7 VM and am using fping 3.3 with it. I know that fping switched to stdout and I’ve added the usestdout = true<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">But smokeping is registering complete loss on my devices. For testing purposes I put two devices to monitor, one that exists (DChubMDF-01) and one that doesn’t (SCoffDOITs-02). So I’m leaning towards this being a loss of communication
between smokeping and fping. I just can’t figure out why. <o:p></o:p></p>
