Nothing in the second target jumps out as being incorrect, however I 
will say that you're doing a lot of avoidable work for a ping-probe 
config file. For instance, take a look at my ping-probe.cfg file...

##Begin ping-probe.cfg

WorkDir: /opt/mrtg/public_html
WithPeak[_]: wmy
IconDir: /images/
RunAsDaemon:Yes
Interval:5
LogFormat:rrdtool
LibAdd:/opt/rrdtl/lib/perl/
PathAdd:/opt/rrdtl/bin
XSize[_]:600		# apply this directive to every target via the _
YSize[_]:150            # another directive that gets applied to all 
targets
Directory[_]:ping-probe                       # another one
Options[_]: growright, gauge, nopercent       # again 
Legend1[_]: Maximum Round Trip Time in ms     # again 
Legend2[_]: Minimum Round Trip Time in ms     # again
Legend3[_]: Maximal 5 Minute Maximum Round Trip Time in ms    #again
Legend4[_]: Maximal 5 Minute Minimum Round Trip Time in ms    #again
LegendI[_]:  Max:      #again

YLegend[_]: milliseconds    #again
ShortLegend[_]: ms          #again
MaxBytes[_]: 1000           #again


#### Since I used the [_] special target above, now my per target 
#### configs are only three lines long....

##End ping-probe.cfg

Keep in mind that everything AFTER the [_] directives will use those
settings, so unless you have a seperate ping-probe.cfg file then you'll
want to do this stuff at the end of your current config file.
