echopinghttp

Just curious,

Is there anyone out there using the echoping http
probe successfully?  Does it really work and are there
and demo sites on the internet that have it?

I've looked around but there doesn't seem to be any. 
There are many on the net that have the ICMP FPing
probe but nothing on the http probe.

Re: echopinghttp

cdm:

I am actually using it for one of the hosts that I am monitoring. A lot 
of my users access data and such from the cancer.gov website, so it 
seemed like a good idea to monitor it. Well, they are blocking ICMP 
packets, so I couldn't use ICMP fping. and I am now using echoping very 
nicely.

Here is the snippet from my config
+ EchoPingHttp
binary = /usr/local/bin/echoping
revalidate_data = yes

          +++ Cancer
          menu  = Cancer.gov
          title = www.cancer.gov Webserver
          host  = www.cancer.gov
          probe = EchoPingHttp

I chose to revalidate the data since the university here is behind a web 
cache and just doing a normal echoping would give me possibly false 
results.

The website that this point to is here:
https://spica.biostat.wisc.edu/cgi-bin/smokeping.cgi?target=World.USA.Cancer

Hope that helps

Hi All,

I am facing problem in getting my smokeping work.

I have done all the configuration needed except using suEXEC.

".RRD" fies are also getting generated fine.

But I am getting internel server error while opening the smokeping.cgi.

Any suggestions  ?

Please help me.

Regards
Venkatesh

Re: smokeping configuration

Your web server's error log should give you some details on what is wrong.
Common causes for an Internal server error include:
* Missing perl modules
*Incorrect paths in smokeping config files
*incorrect path in the shebang line.

Your log file is the best source of information. Post the relevant bit and
we may be able to help a bit more.

AW: re:telnetIOSPing problem

Salve,

 
U have to set the binary path to the perl module:

binary = /<your-smokeping-dir>/probes/telnetIOSPing.pm

Example:
+ IOSPing
 packetsize = 56
 forks = 1

binary = /smokeping/smokeping-1.23/lib/probes/telnetIOSPing.pm

 

Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Andreas Steinmetz

announce: Smokeping 1.24

Folks,

I have released Smokeping 1.24 on
http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/smokeping/pub/

2003/10/05 -- 1.24
* The new --filter option allows you to run the smokeping deamon on a big config file,
  but have the config file filtered and only measure the entries that pass
  the filter. This allows to use rsync to consolidate measurements from
  different hosts at a central location for presentation. -- Tobi
* new lookup option for DNS probe -- "Poetzel, Christopher J." <cpoetzel <at> anl.gov>
* store iaxhight info in img cache -- Curtis Doty <Curtis <at> GreenKey.net>
* new probes: ICMP echo response times - CiscoRTTMonEchoICMP.pm,
  DNS query response times - CiscoRTTMonDNS.pm,
  TCP connect times - CiscoRTTMonTcpConnect.pm  -- joerg.kummer at roche.com

cheers
tobi

Announce SmokePing RemotePing plugin

All,
I have run this for a few weeks and have given this out to some other
users and all seem to have no problems.

There is 1 major restriction:
The remoteping will only work for 1 remote host pinging several host...
In order to use
multiple remote host, you make another instance of 
remoteFping = remotefping  & remotefpingxx

Changing the module name to match of course in the file itself.  Now you
have 2 remote hosts that can ping several host.

You also need to use this modified version of Tobi's, fping.c

IPv4 Fping and IPv6 FPing6 coexistence

Hello,

We are using SmokePing to monitor ~50 hosts. Generally everything is 
working perfect.
However I have noticed strange SmokePing behaviour and am wondering how 
to solve it...

We are monitoring two sets of targets (all configured within one config 
file and under TARGETS secition
of course). One set is probed by IPv4 FPing, and the second set is 
probed by IPv6 FPing6.

The list of IPv4 targets begins with:

*** Targets ***
probe = FPing

/and list of targets/

and the list of IPv6 targets starts directly under the last IPv4 
targets, with:

probe = FPing6
/
and list of targets
/
It looks like any target, which is the last target within IPv4 ping list 
(set) instead of being probed
by IPv4 ping, it is probed by IPv6 ping (even if it is definitely within 
IPv4 ping group...)

To add CURL support to smokeping

I'm taking over somebody elses install of smokeping. I would like to add curl support, but its been months
since I configured smokeping and I always have trouble setting it up.
Here is my current configuration. Just a hint of where I should get started would be handy. This is smokeping
1.24 so it _should_ have the curl plugin added, also its configured under Probes, however I dont know how to
get it to do CURL checks, with CURL graphs. Please let me know. Any help is appreciated, I cannot seem to find
too much documentation on CURL probe configuring for smokeping. Or I have a lack of reading power :P:
