    A simple stupid ping

    hi all

    i am running zabbix 1.4.5 on debian and i can't even get zabbix to ping a machine in our domain. I tried the simple check and I tried the agent ping. I have set up the ping like found on this forum and I can ping from the debian to all possible machines and back. also fping is working on the console of debian. does anybody have an idea what this problem might be, i am getting desperate

      do other queries work?

      If you have a zabbix client installed,
      say "zabbix_get -s <clientname_or_ip> -k agent.version" on the server's cmd line


      Also, chekc the logfiles... maybe there's a problem with user "zabbix"'s user rights...
      Big ZABBIX is watching you!
      (... and my 48 hosts, 4513 items, 1280 triggers via zabbix v1.6 on CentOS 5.0)

          yes it works
          and the rest started to work as well, i only get a 1 as reply to my ping simple check so i guess i am using the wrong value (fping) no?

              The value you are getting back is correct.

              Icmpping or agent.ping returns 1 or 0, 1=successful, 0=fail..
