| 287130 | 2004-11-02 10:21:00 | You can find some info on what IDG runs its website with/on here (www.idg.co.nz). I believe PF1 runs on Linux Red Hat :D Oh and this is on a Jetstream Surf 256K connection: --- pressf1.co.nz ping statistics --- 4 packets transmitted, 4 received, 0% packet loss, time 3002ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 41.996/44.423/47.070/1.908 ms, pipe 2 |

| 287132 | 2004-11-02 10:43:00 | This business of pinging is utter nonsense. I can ping my PDA which is a 33MHz dragonball processor and get a <10ms ping over bluetooth, I get the exact same ping off of a dual 2.8GHz database server over Gigabit ethernet. They can both fling a packet back no trouble but I know which one I would be using to run a dynamic web-site off. The site seems to be running fine as far as I can tell, though it's probably a perception thing as much as anything else. |

" A basic Internet program that lets you verify that a particular Internet address exists and can accept requests. Pinging is diagnostically used to ensure that a host computer, which you are trying to reach, actually operates." |

It is a useful tool, to check if a host is up and maybe gauge the most rudimentary of ideas of the host being under network based load. Though completely irrelevant in the issue presented here. |
