Hello all,

If you want to add an reverse DNS lookup to your "conn" test:

- You use CNAMEs for your devices and you want to see their real names
- You would like to see if your DNS reverse pointers are set correctly

Just use "dns_ping" !  (this is a simple wrapper around fping with awk)

Let me know if you found some optimisation, problem or if you like it.
