4.3.0 fping problem

[mv652 at softhome.net]

Hi, 

I am putting in a new install with Xymon 4.3.0 beta 2. 

When I try to use 'fping' as my ping utility, I receive connection errors 
for all hosts, including the server itself: 

"Service conn on <host> is not OK : Host does not respond to ping
System unreachable for 1 poll periods (0 seconds)" 


Using' hobbitping' works fine, but because it doesn't report back the  times 
in microseconds correctly I need to use fping.  I'm a little stumped as to 
what I'm missing to have fping work correctly. 


My sudoers file is set as: "xymon ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: 
/usr/local/sbin/fping".
Typing in "sudo /usr/local/sbin/fping -Ae <host>" on the command line as my 
xymon user gives me a response with no password needed. 

My hobbitserver.cfg file has entry: FPING="sudo /usr/local/sbin/fping -Ae". 

[xymon at pxxxxxx etc]$ id
uid=500(xymon) gid=500(xymon) groups=500(xymon)
[xymon at xxxxxx etc]$ which fping
/usr/local/sbin/fping
[xymon at xxxxxx etc]$ ls -l /usr/local/sbin/fping
 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 48827 Jul  8 13:07 /usr/local/sbin/fping
[xymon at xxxxxx etc]$ /usr/local/sbin/fping -Ae y.y.y.y
This program can only be run by root, or it must be setuid root.
[xymon at xxxxxx etc]$ sudo /usr/local/sbin/fping -Ae y.y.y.y
y.y.y.y is alive (0.85 ms) 


I've compiled with 'hobbitping' and then with 'fping', updating the 
hobbitserver.cfg with the same result. 


I don't think this is a DNS issue because hobbitping works and the IP's 
reported back to my tests are correct. 


Any ideas? 


Thanks,
Mario
