The manual says:
If ping does not receive any reply packets at all it will exit
with
code 1. If a packet count and deadline are both specified, and
fewer
than count packets are received by the time the deadline has
arrived,
it will also exit with code 1. On other error it exits with code
2.
Otherwise it exits with code 0. This makes it possible to use the
exit
code to see if a host is alive or not.
That's odd: The higher the ping count, the more likely an error exit is.
