PING RADAR ---------- Ping radar is the programm that regulary attempt to ping a list of hosts and display the reponse time. It has been written just for fun. Actually its a developpment version with a lot of hardcoded stuff and no argument parsing. The programm read a list of hostname, ip addresses, or CIDR from the file $HOME/.hosts_scanner and run childs processes to update a temporary result file. CIDR ip ranges are implemented using nmap in a child process. When an IP answer a ping child process is started. There is an implementation of mutex lock/release using a temporary directory for result file and stdout writes. BUGS ---- When quitting using ctrl+c CIDR child processes take times to stop and generaly the child killing process is slow.
