# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE: # The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line # up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|' # on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must # make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also # customary to leave one space after the ':'. |-----handy-ruler--------------------------------------------------------| fping6: fping6 (a ping like program to send ICMP echo requests to IPv6 hosts) fping6: fping6: fping6 is a ping(1) like program which uses the Internet Control fping6: Message Protocol (ICMP) echo request to determine if a host is up. fping6: fping6 is different from ping in that you can specify any number of fping6: hosts on the command line, or specify a file containing the lists of fping6: hosts to ping. fping6: This version of fping is compiled with IPv6 support, and additional fping6: changes from Debian patch (including source address support). fping6: fping6: http://www.fping.com/ fping6: http://packages.debian.org/sid/fping
