I wouldn't use threads for system calls. Checkout the subprocess
module instead. You can run multiple pipes at the same time
(subprocess.Popen). The python documentation for subprocess is pretty
good. There are a few examples. Actually, you don't even _need_ the
subprocess module, you can use os.po

Not sure, but "ip" should be "self.ip", this might cause the problem.

I wrote a quick script to check the "up-ness" of a list of machines,
and timeout after 1 second. However, with a lot of timeouts, the
script takes a logn time, so I thought to parallelise it. However, as
soon as I do, the pings that do not get a response never return, so
their threads block forever
