Ok, think I figured it out.  It appears that the zenoss user doesn't have the 
permission to run the FPing command.  The CLI tests I used were as root. When I 
switched to the zenoss user I got an error about permissions.  Has anyone else 
struck this?  Seems unusual that I am the first one to bring this up.  Used 
Sudo to make it work.  Had to edit the Sudo configuration file and add "zenoss 
ALL=(root) NOPASSWD:/usr/sbin/fping" then change the command line to read as 
follows:

Code:
usr/bin/sudo /usr/sbin/fping -c 3 -sq  ${device/manageIp} 2>&1 | 
/usr/sbin/convertfping.pl


Obviously you will have to use the name of the PERL script that you created. 
This is just what I used.  Now I get the correct output when I use the "Test 
Against Device" option

Now I have a new issue. The Latency and Loss graph doesn't show at all (expand 
buttons are there but no graph) .  The 'Latency and Loss' Graph Points seemed 
to be a type of 'Not Drawn' so I changed to both Line and Area but still get 
nothing. Anyone?
