Hello all,

I'm trying to figure out why my smokeping installation using fping probes now seems to get periodic loss. It's very minor and only affects the fping probe type. Without centering too much on smokeping details, was there any sort of default rate limiting changed in the ICMP settings going from FreeBSD 5.4 to 6.0? The problem happens across every monitor and started exactly after the upgrade. I tried removing and reinstalling the fping port as well as all of smokeping via the port as well but it had no effect. Does anyone have any other ideas as to what might cause this to happen? I asked on the smokeping list but nobody had any input.

The system in question is running:

FreeBSD engbox.tellurian.net 6.1-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 6.1-PRERELEASE #3: Wed Mar 8 16:37:25 EST 2006

I can post dmesg output too, but I don't think that is necessarily relevant as everything else is working perfectly fine and I have no stability or performance problems.

Thanks in advance for any helpful ideas or hints!
