Do you mean something like:
ping -c10 host1
ping -c10 host2
....
which will ping host1 10 times, then host2 10 times etc. (see `man ping`
for details of the options).
If you have a list of hosts in a file, you could do:
for host in `cat [filename]`
do
ping -c10 $host
done
or:
while read host
do
ping -c10 $host
done << [filename]
If you only want to ping each host once, you can substitute '-c10' with
'-c1' (again, see the man page).
Hope this helps
Laurence
