OmniPing Pro 2.x FAQ
|
| Can
OmniPing ping a range of addresses larger than (the equivalent of) a class
C? |
|
At this time
OmniPing can only handle one class C address
(or the equivalent within a Class A or B range)
at this time. You can set up one scheduled run for each class
C under your class B if you like, but they cannot be
combined in reports or schedules, they must be kept separate.
This is something that is planned for a future version of
OmniPing, but will likely be quite a while before it is
implemented.

| I'd
like to be notified by e-mail when a machine fails to
respond to a ping request. Can OmniPing do this? |
|
OmniPing was
designed as a discovery tool, not a monitoring tool; it does
not have this functionality. Years ago the market was
flooded with these utilities, but it appears that many of
them have disappeared. There is a possibility
that I may introduce a product that can do this if
enough demand exists. Let me know if this is what you're looking for!
|
| How
many schedules can OmniPing handle? |
|
The number of
scheduled runs allowed is virtually unlimited!
|
| I'm
trying to install in Win NT4/2K and it keeps asking me to
reboot but nothing else happens. What's up with that? |
|
This is
usually due to a security issue. Please make sure the
user logged into Windows has local Admin rights when
installing. Several system files are updated (if they
are out of date) by the installer, in the first part of the
install, and if the user does not have local Admin rights,
the installer will not be able to replace them.
Unfortunately it does not explain the problem, it just asks
for a reboot. A new better installation utility is
forthcoming for OmniPing.
