Re: The "best" version of "ping"?

Throughout the years, I've seen a number of different versions of "ping" with various features like:

- "-f" switch which pings a destination as fast as possible - "-c" switch which acts like the ping function on a cisco router - TTL reporting - improved clock resolution - ability to specify data pattern - ability to source jumbograms

I have a version with all that which I have not packaged up. If there is interest and someone sent me a round tuit, I could make it available via FTP. It also does: - record route - loose and strict source routing - specify fixed or incremental TTL - Send ICMP MASK REQUEST packets - Send ICMP INFO REQUEST packets - IP multicast support Jeff
