Hello Gregory,

So, i think i know what could be the issues. Fping isnt working for some 
reason, its a lates version.

TCPPING -     -C   print in the same format as fping's -C option

In ubuntu 14.04 i checked FPING and it looks like an Archive file, even 
after re-installation still no luck. When i run TCPPING without capital 
-C it works fine (not in smokeping but regular command) 

Just as an example: TCPPING with -C ---
www.google.com : - - - - -


Here is without -C: 
root at atl-net-mgt-01:/etc/smokeping/config.d# tcpping -x 5 www.google.com 
80
traceroute to www.google.com (74.125.141.103), 255 hops max, 60 byte 
packets
seq 0: tcp response from vl-in-f103.1e100.net (74.125.141.103) <syn,ack>  
18.911 ms
traceroute to www.google.com (74.125.141.147), 255 hops max, 60 byte 
packets
seq 1: tcp response from vl-in-f147.1e100.net (74.125.141.147) <syn,ack>  
19.696 ms
traceroute to www.google.com (74.125.141.104), 255 hops max, 60 byte 
packets
seq 2: tcp response from vl-in-f104.1e100.net (74.125.141.104) <syn,ack>  
19.145 ms
traceroute to www.google.com (74.125.141.99), 255 hops max, 60 byte 
packets
seq 3: tcp response from vl-in-f99.1e100.net (74.125.141.99) <syn,ack>

What do you think?


Thanks for all the help
