Hoi Dough, the probe variable must be set in the apropriate section ... it gets inherited down the tree ..

[smokeping-users] SmokePing IPv6/FPing6 not displaying any results or error
I'm trying to configure SmokePing to plot IPvt4 and IPv6 response times. I have a default install of SmokePing on Ubuntu server. The IPv4 part is working fine. Here's what I've done so far. FPing6 to the Probes file, see below for file contents. Tested FPing6 ::1 from a commend line. Received a response of ::1 is alive (So I'm thinking this part is working.) I then modified the Targets file adding the IPv6 section, + LocalIPv6. This created the graph, but no data. But then I was thinking what activates the FPing6 so I added it as a probe at towards the top of the Targets file. (Contents of Targets file is below.) Now when I restart SmokePing I'm getting an error the probe variable already exists. What am I doing wrong? Do I need multiple Targets files, one for each probe? If so where do I declare the name of each Targets file? Would appreciate any assistance.

[smokeping-users] SmokePing to IPv6 hosts
Just getting started with SmokePing. I my Targets files and am plotting response times to IPv4 hosts. I'd like to do the same for IPv6 hosts and could use a little assistance. In reading the documentation it looks like I need to mod the Probes. The default contents of the Probes file is + FPing binary = /usr/bin/fping I'm thinking I have to add the following lines to Probes. + FPing6 binary = /usr/bin/fping And then modify the target's file with something like ++ IPv6 Hosts menu = IPv6 host 1 title = IPv6 host 1 host = FE80::1 Am I missing anything else?
