>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Can I use wwipstuff to ping an IP address (not a Web server)? I need a SIMPLE way to ping from Fox, to know if a box is up.

Oscar:

Erik Moore answered this question the following way in Message #474770:
"Unfortunately, there's no easy way to do this, all we can do is check for the accessibility of a known reliable resource (a ping, for example). There are Windows API functions that are supposed to tell you if you've got a connection, but they're not reliable."

Note: It is bad form and improper "netiquette" to ask an unrelated question in the middle of a thread. Start a new thread with your question next time, please.

Nota: Oscar, es mala idea y mal "netiquette", preguntar una cosa que diferente al tema del hilo en curso. La próxima vez trata de empezar un hilo nuevo por favor.
