Internet Detection

I didn't realize that creating the link changed the mode of the command, so
here is what I get now (I set google.ca to an incorrect IP with my hosts
file to test a failed host)

[root at monitor libexec]# ln -s check_icmp check_host
[root at monitor libexec]# ./check_icmp www.google.com www.dell.com
www.nasa.gov google.ca     
CRITICAL - www.google.com: rta 93.954ms, lost 0% :: www.dell.com: rta
80.487ms, lost 0% :: www.nasa.gov: rta 66.459ms, lost 0% :: google.ca: rta
nan, lost 100%|www.google.comrta=93.954ms;200.000;500.000;0;

[root at monitor libexec]# ./check_host www.google.com www.dell.com
www.nasa.gov google.ca    
mode: 1
mode: 1
mode: 1
mode: 1
mode: 1
mode: 1
Segmentation fault

Basically if I just run check_icmp then I get Critcal since google.ca
appears to be down, and check host doesn't return anything usable. 

Thanks

Miles
