Check_ping problems ?

[Drew Kollasch]

The devices in question are printers and access points that have single
interfaces/IP's. Regular pings from the box to the devices in question
have no problems at all. (as well as from other machines to/from the
devices in question)

Would there happen to be an archive of the plugins someplace that I
could maybe try different versions of the check_ping command? The reason
I ask this is because the 'weirdness' seemed to have started sometime
after an upgrade on the plugins for my nagios install. (base OS is
gentoo[x86])

It means that you've possibly got several boxes registered to the same
IP address, or other similiar network weirdness.  Ping does that when it
sends out one ping request but gets back two replies.

I'd try some manual ping commands to try and isolate the problem.
