[smokeping-users] FPing6 localhost probe

[Sebastian Wiesinger]

Hi,

the IPv6 probe does the following to check the output:

fping6 -C 1 localhost 2>&1

On my Debian system localhost has only the ipv4 address assigned
(127.0.0.1) so smokeping hangs at startup [::1 is ip6-localhost here].

Perhaps your could change

$_ = `$self->{properties}{binary} -C 1 localhost 2>&1`;

to

$_ = `$self->{properties}{binary} -C 1 ::1 2>&1`;

in FPing6.pm if there are no reasons against it.


Regards,

Sebastian
