Subject: [PATCH iputils ping]: report outstanding packets before sending next packet
Hello,
please accept following patch to ping to let ping report outstanding
packets before sending next packet. This is a sorely missed feature
from the old sun ping. Very useful together with the -D option:
ping -DO 10.122.145.180 > file
# wait next day
^C
grep "no answer yet" file
