Re: Net::Ping troubles

[little]

out of the docs:

Net::Ping->new([$proto [, $def_timeout [, $bytes]]]);

Create a new ping object. All of the parameters are optional.
$proto specifies the protocol to use when doing a ping.
The current choices are ``tcp'', ``udp'' or ``icmp''.
The default is ``udp''.

Do u use the right proto ?

He says he's tried them all.. With UDP he gets zeros, with ICMP he gets an error message, and with TCP he gets an error about alarm not being supported on NT.

For me it worked fine under so are all the services available? TCP didn't want to work on Win98, so I've chosen icmp, which succeeded. ??
