check_ping: Could not interpret...

[alan.simon at free.fr]

hi all,

I'am using :
nagios-1.2-2.1.el3.rf
nagios-plugins-1.4-2.1.el3.rf
fping-2.4-1.b2.1.el3.rf
 on a RedHat EL3

and testing two versions of check_ping
check_ping -V :
1.11 (nagios-plugins 1.3.1)
1.42 (nagios-plugins 1.4)

I get this known Error:  Could not interpret output from ping command
on host up with version 1.42 (work fine on host down)
on host down (unused IP) with version 1.11 (work fine on host up)

and here's the output of the ping command :
### on host UP :
