Ok,  I had to modify fping because it directed the output to syserr and 
not sysout .  This was done because if you get icmp redirects is doesn't 
work..The icmp redirect message tries to be loaded as latency numbers.   
However, if  you are using the standard fping probe..

modify the probe..
find this..

    my @times =() ;
    $self->{rtts}={};
    while (<$outh>) {
        chomp;
        $self->do_debug("array element=$_ \n")

change it to
 ;
    my @times =() ;
    $self->{rtts}={};
    while (<$errh>) {
        chomp;
        $self->do_debug("array element=$_ \n")


basically change   sysout to syserr..
