You could also try the ping module that the Eddie monitoring tool has
been using successfully, cross-platform, for many years.

The problem is that most modern up-to-date servers use firewalls. They

To do a real ICMP ping, you need raw sockets, which are turned off on
Windows and reserved for root on other systems. You could try to
connect to an unused port, and see how

Either use something like os.system() to call the ping executable, or
try using Google (e.g. python ping
Try the PyNMS libraries:

It has a ping module. If all you need is the ping module, maybe you
