I have prepared a package[1], could you please test, if that is building 
correctly on non-linux?

I just changed the check_ping calls on my test environment to "check_ping -t 
15", while inetutils-ping was used and did had a look .. but didn't recognized 
any significant changes, but my testenvironment just has ~20 hosts. I can 
raised that to 20 seconds, but in the worst case sysadmins have 10 seconds 
reaction time lost. :) Dunno if this is such a clever idea.
 
With kind regards, Jan.
