Thread: Ping

    hey dotperfect, does your app build Ping packlets or just shell a ping command?
    When you connect to your ISP, you are potentially opening your computer to the world. There are \'naughty people\' out there who enjoy breaking into other people\'s computers. Give some thought to the security of your computer...

    I use a program called samspade that has the ability to ping, finger, dig, whois.....etc. It's a really nice program. Try searching for it on google.

    A ping flood is as the name suggests: a huge amount of pings, so great that it "floods" the connection of a host (computer) to a network. Ping of Death was one of the more popular ones in the early/mid 90s due to flaws in Win95 and various Linuxes. Floods, or by the more common name of DoS (Denial of Service), have evolved as time has gone on to include amplification floods (where pings are amplified by routers -- broadcast pings can be effective for this), distribution (aka DDoS), etc. Today, we often see modification of packets including source address, TOS information, size, fragmentation, etc.

    Hope this helps.

    You can find out more information using google and the terms ping flood dos.

    just install linux. everything you want to do in a network is much easier under this OS. and speaking about ping, i don't understand why you said that the ping command is not good enough. If you don't want to use linux, you should try to write your own ping command. it's not very hard if you have some programming knowledges and if you know C.

    Honestly I only ever use the -t option in PING, NMAP for port scanning, and SolarWinds for network ping scans. But upon further investigation there seems to be a way to use the default ping util in Windows/dos to ping multiple hosts with one command, ie ping "destination-lists". Has anyone used the "destination-lists" on the ping command. Or is the term of "lists" just a mistype (Heaven Forbid) from M$? I also noticed in XP it no longer says destination-lists, but target_name.
