Hi Nirmal,

I like this script idea.  How would I turn it up a notch though?  I'm looking to add a time stamp on every single reply I get back from the device I am pinging.  How would I do that?  For example:

Pinging 172.25.0.60 with 32 bytes of data:

8:54:52 Reply from 172.25.0.60: bytes=32 time=3ms TTL=64

8:54:53 Reply from 172.25.0.60: bytes=32 time=2ms TTL=64

8:54:54 Reply from 172.25.0.60: bytes=32 time=3ms TTL=64

8:54:55 Reply from 172.25.0.60: bytes=32 time=2ms

Ping statistics for 172.25.0.60:

   Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),

Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:

   Minimum = 2ms, Maximum = 4ms, Average = 2ms

Is this possible?

you can also loop it:

:TOP

echo %time% >> c:\PingServer.txt

Ping 111.34.22.45 >> C:\PingServer.txt

GOTO TOP

Thank you.  This will assist me with something on which I'm working and will get me a few more hours sleep.  I'll possibly be able to go to church on sunday instead of monitoring a server.

As a heavy metal/ hard rock afficionado I was more than a little suspicious of the talent or the bonafides of Lordi, the Finnish heavy metal band that won this year\'s Eurovision song contest. I mean any song contest with the word Euro in it is going

Hi roy,

Do you success in doing the time-stamp please update me if you could

I found this tool that does a ping with a timestamp. It works great!

www.cfos.de/.../ping.htm

Enjoy!

I also found that tool. And this is the command line I use to catch request-timed-out errors with timestamp:

hrping -t -o -F c:\pingcheck.txt -qr -T -s 0 -w 997 example.com

-t constant ping

-o don't do overlapped pinging (to be able to catch timestamps of request timed outs)

-F log also to file

-qr suppress normal replies (to not overflood log files/console)

-T print timestamp

-s time between two ping attempts (0ms)

-w time to wait for reply (997ms)

HTH

Found a real simple cycle that did the job for me.

@ECHO OFF

:TOP

FOR /F "tokens=3,4,5 delims= " %%A IN ('PING -a %1 -n 1 ^| FIND "Reply"') DO ECHO %DATE% %TIME% %%A %%B %%C >> pingpong.txt

GOTO TOP

hope this helps

Looping with a sleep between attempts.

Obtain sleep.exe from Windows Server 2003 Resource Kit Tools

The path to Sleep.exe should also be given.

:TOP

echo %time%>>C:\PingServer.txt

ping -w 20000 -n 1 -l 1 111.34.22.45>>C:\PingServer.txt

C:\sleep 5

GOTO TOP

Use fping

fping www.google.com -t 50000 -c -T -L ping.txt

hrping rawks..it really works!

rem Try below

@Echo off

if ""%1""=="""" goto HELP

if ""%1""==""/?"" goto HELP

echo %0 %1

set result=

for /f "tokens=* delims= " %%a in ('ping %1 -n 1 ^| find /i "reply"') do (

set result="%%a"

)

if ""%result%""=="""" goto :IFELSE_PING

for /f "tokens=3,4,5,6 delims= " %%a in (%result%) do (

set result="%%a %%b %%c %%d"

)

goto ENDIF_PING

:IFELSE_PING

set result="Request timed out."

:ENDIF_PING

rem echo %result%

:KEEP_PINGING

for /f "tokens=* delims= " %%a in (%result%) do (

echo %date% %time% - %%a

)

sleep 1

GOTO KEEP_PINGING

hrping doesn't work well with windows vista... is there any alternative tools for vista?

D:\hrping-v244>hrping.exe -T 192.168.1.1

This is hrPING v2.44 by cFos Software GmbH -- http://www.cfos.de

Pinging 192.168.1.1

with 32 bytes data (60 bytes IP):

4 Requests timed out.

Statistics for 192.168.1.1:

   Packets: sent=4, rcvd=0, error=0, lost=4 (100% loss) in 0.000000 sec

hrPing has known problems with Windows Vista and later raw sockets.

Maybe a newer version of hrPing has already fixed them?

if you need it for linux:

while [ 1 ];do date +"%F %X - `ping -c1 localhost|grep icmp`" >> ping.log;sleep 3;done

starting time 15:13:26

any cmd to view like this?

I've tweaked the script to:

a) re-execute the ping each time (note the Goto Start in this script which is missing above)

b) work on Windows 7 (which doesn't appear to have a sleep command)

c) as an enhancement, wait 10 seconds between successful pings, but only 2 between unsuccessful)
