Not automagically.  You need to define the ping time and packet loss 
thresholds at which you want warned or notified.  Example:

check_command   check_ping!200.0,20%!300.0,60%

This check-command will warn at >200ms and >20% packet loss, but go critical 
at >300ms and >60% packet loss.  If that's too short of a time-frame, you 
should change the numbers to suit.

Of course, the above example assumes you have the default check_ping command 
defined in checkcommands.cfg, which unless you changed it after installation, 
you almost certainly do.

Thanks for the link to the VRML viewer, it works, but I was hoping for a Linux 
one.  *frumple*
