After "fixing" the bug I noticed that the Zabbix server also uses fping6, I started getting this error in the logs: 5549:20090502:211733 /usr/sbin/fping6: [2] No such file or directory
So you alalso have to define this in the Zabbix configuration file: Fping6Location=/usr/bin/fping6 Attached is an updated patch. With this zabbix starts working as expected: zabbix 5791 5771 0 21:20 ? 00:00:00 sh -c /usr/bin/fping -c3 2>/dev/null </tmp/zabbix_server_5771.pinger;/usr/bin/fping6 -c3 2>/dev/null </tmp/zabbix_server_5771.pinger Regards Javier
