command switch to fping that would produce that output just like a windows
ping, (I think it was –c=3) but that just breaks the conn test and I get
red all around. Well I’ll impatiently wait for the release and hope this
issue gets resolved ;-). Thanks for the answer Josh at least I know there is
hope.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

you for all the help in the past with the questions I've had. All is working
well and I have good confidence in my implementation of this tool. However
