I'm guessing you have no Perl module called ping1024.pm and that you
never expected that you would have one, right?

I think you syntax is incorrect.

Try something this?  I haven't tried it exactly like this myself.

*** Probes ***

+ FPing
binary = /usr/bin/fping

++ping1024
packetsize = 1024


If you were to say that the documentation could be clearer in places,
then I wouldn't disagree.
