SuSE ping/check_ping

[Daniel Geske]

SuSE customizes many things on their Linux, their ping is one of the
many useless changes.
To fix your specific problem, save your original ping command, then copy
your ipv6 ping to be your ping (v4) command.
That does the trick.
Much success with SuSE ;-)

Sincerely

Daniel

Subject: [Nagios-users] SuSE ping/check_ping


Hello all.

I am pretty new to the Nagios/SuSE world, but have Nagios up and going
and all is working fine except for a problem with check_ping.  I have
been reading the group discussions on SuSE 8.0 having ping problems and
that replacing the binary fixes the problem.  I am currently running 7.3
and have failed in locating a replacement binary for ping.  The error is
one I am sure all of you have read about by now...

"You've got a big problem buddy! You need more args!!!"

Any suggestions would be helpful.

Thank you,
Bill
