[smokeping-users] Re: Smokeping Suggestion - No data on graph..... fixed

[Joan Cirer]

Hi!

Fping can be run with user privileges only. But in Debian -for example- its
installed under /usr/sbin, so yo need too put use the full path to fping in
the Probe configuration, so it can be found by the programm when it's run a
user.


Regards

Apparently if bin/smokeping is not run as root then fping cannot be
called/run either so there
will be no data on the graph as no pings will get sent..... I would like to
suggest that for the
next update that smokeping complains when it is run by a user that does not
have priviledges to
execute fping.(and any other scripts for that matter)

Thanks Tobi.
