Actually the class ping bit is a placeholder. I'm actually developing a module with python implementations of most standard network/internet tools such as telnet, tracert, whois etc. It will be called inettools, and the ping function is what I'm working on first. It should be a simple enough job to code in the features the Unix and DOS ping programs have(never stop, change size, change timeout). As I am typing this, I'm looking through ping.c to see what I can glean. It probably won't be much. My experience with C is very little. As in, microscopic. Pretty much all the coding I've done up till now has been shell scripting.
