Hello,

check_ping for a host that is unreachable results in an UNKNOWN result:

apollock at caesar:/etc/nagios$ /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_ping -H andrewpollock -w 100.0,20% -c 500.0,60%
/bin/ping andrewpollock -n -c 5
Error: Could not interpret output from ping command
apollock at caesar:/etc/nagios$ echo $?
3

regards

Andrew
