Bug Description

Binary package hint: cacti

Making a graph of the ping latency of a host no longer works. The output of the ping script (located in <path_cacti>/scripts/ping.pl) is invalid.

The problem is the following line in ping.pl:
open(PROCESS, "ping -c 1 $host | grep icmp_seq | grep time |");

icmp_seq should be replaced with icmp_req, as that is used in the output of the ping util. This fixed the problem.

Version information:
Ubuntu 10.10
Cacti package 0.8.7g-1
