So I have a bunch of systems in my network that require a monitoring system
to
test if network connectivity is there (sound familiar anyone?). So, rather
than
try some of the many programs out there for this, I, naturally, decided to
write
a cgi in perl! Woo Hoo!

At first I thought about opening a socket to each system to test it, and
that worked
except for the NT hosts.(They weren't running the ssh service that the *Nix
systems were).

Then I thought about doing a ping, but I am having trouble finding a module
for ICMP, so,
before I code a little more for ICMP, can anyone point me towards a module
that uses ICMP
with nearly the same syntax as IO::Socket has for tcp?

Thanks.

-James
