Which version of linux are you running this on? Redhat 7.3? I was having a
similar issue, when I replaced the net tools with the 7.2 stuff it worked
again.

Subject: [Nagios-users] check_ping
Hi,
We are monitoring a wireless customer and noticing some strange results
from just this one customer. From the Nagios box I can run:
[root at chief libexec]# ping 204.xxx.xxx.67:
PING 204.xxx.xxx.67 (204.xxx.xxx.67) from 204.xxx.xxx.3 : 56(84) bytes
of data.
64 bytes from 204.xxx.xxx.67: icmp_seq=1 ttl=254 time=8.668 msec
64 bytes from 204.xxx.xxx.67: icmp_seq=2 ttl=254 time=9.026 msec
64 bytes from 204.xxx.xxx.67: icmp_seq=3 ttl=254 time=8.088 msec
64 bytes from 204.xxx.xxx.67: icmp_seq=4 ttl=254 time=35.096 msec
64 bytes from 204.xxx.xxx.67: icmp_seq=5 ttl=254 time=12.498 msec
Works like a charm. Now I'm going to run CHECK_PING:
[root at chief libexec]# ./check_ping -H 204.xxx.xxx.67 -w 3000,80% -c
5000,100% -p 1
CRITICAL - Plugin timed out after 10 seconds
Hmm, this happens EVERY single time I run it...now I'm going to change
it to 5 pings.
[root at chief libexec]# ./check_ping -H 204.244.160.67 -w 3000,80% -c
5000,100% -p 5
PING OK - Packet loss = 20%, RTA = 20.32 ms
These results cause the host to always be down, yet the ping service to
show it as up. Does CHECK_PING use a large packet size? I don't have a
clue what is causing this. Does anyone have any ideas?
I'm running the newest version of Nagios(1.0b5) and Plugins (1.3beta1).
Thanks in advance,
- Darren
