Hi!
I found that the Windows %SYSTEM32/ping.exe does not provide return
codes and has some other drawbacks.
Looking hard I couldn't locate a /bin/ping in the cygwin distribution.
Didn't I look enough? Or is it really not there? Why?
Maybe you know some other (besides cygwin and MS builtin) 'ping.exe'
that is scriptable with proper return values - like the unix ones?!
Thanks a lot!
Tino
