Hi!

I found that the Windows %SYSTEM32/ping.exe does not provide return 
codes and has some other drawbacks.

Looking hard I couldn't locate a /bin/ping in the cygwin distribution. 
Didn't I look enough? Or is it really not there? Why?

Maybe you know some other (besides cygwin and MS builtin) 'ping.exe' 
that is scriptable with proper return values - like the unix ones?!

Thanks a lot!

Tino
