PING RADAR
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
Ping radar is a 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.
