--- Comment #5 from Jochen Katz
I don't see any benefit using fping. It is installed in /usr, so it is not usable in the when /usr is on remote-fs and this (+static ip) was the purpose of this optional helper script, e.g. when bnx2 does not report the carrier correctly. A loop seems better to me.
Yes, your loop can do it without fping. I mentioned fping, because if fping is called with the right params, it will return after the specified amount of seconds, while such params do not exist for ping. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
