Hi,

the check_ping plugin (Version *.31) prints the message "Error:Could not
interpret output from ping command"

I found out that if the host is unreachable (for example if a router is
misconfigured) ping prints another paramter in the result line :
5 packets send, 0 recieves, +3 errors, 100% packet loss,........

If the host is reachable or the icmp messages are returned everything looks
okay.

I use RedHat Enterprise 3

Do you have a patch for this case??

thx, bye
