Sample code: === #!/usr/bin/perl use CGI qw(:standard); use strict; my $pingcommand = '/bin/ping'; my $host= 'www.yahoo.com'; my $Display = `$pingcommand $host`; print header(); print qq~$Display~; Doesn't seem to work. ??

Instead of shelling out to ping. Try using the Net::Ping module. Docs give good, easy to user examples.

Re: Ping Results
don't forget that unix ping goes on forever, use -c number of pings to limit it (4 is goot) On Thu, Jan 30, 2003 at 08:33:36AM -0600, Mike Blezien wrote: Hello all, trying to put together a simple 'ping' display via the browser... and not having any luck... how does one get the results of a ping to diplay the results properly ??
