I just want to close the series of mail I've sent yesterday. The problem
is now clearly identify and is coming from the echoping binary.

Just take a look on that:
/usr/local/bin/echoping -h / -n 20 www.zdf.de   
getaddrinfo error for host: www.zdf.de Name or service not known

Yet if I lunch the following command:
/usr/local/bin/echoping -h / -n 20 www.zdf.de:80
it works very fine.

So, the smokeping config file, in my case, for the EchoPingHttp
probe has to contain the following informations:
+++++ HTTP

menu = HTTP
title = HTTP
probe = EchoPingHttp
host = www.zdf.de
++++++ PROBE_CONF
port = 80

without this:
++++++ PROBE_CONF
port = 80

it won't work because the command line build by smokeping is:
/usr/local/bin/echoping -h / -n 20 www.zdf.de

with it smokeping force the command line to:
/usr/local/bin/echoping -h / -n 20 www.zdf.de:80

All this has been seen with a ./somkeping --debug:
first case:
[smokeping at orion bin]$ ./smokeping --debug
