Dpinger 3.0 hot off the presses!
-
Hopefully this gets enough testing to be baked into 2.4.1…
https://github.com/dennypage/dpinger/releases/tag/v3.0Thank you Denny (and NOYB) :D
edit: For any who want to test it, scroll 4 posts down for download link & instructions

Good morning/afternoon/night…
How can I test this? if i can.

-
Way too late for 2.4.0, but we'll bring it into snapshots after the release
-
I think most of us know that this is not landing in 2.4.0.
In on 2.4.1 VM i can test it.
I'll wait. Thnaks
-
I compiled this from source & installed this on my 2.4.1 test system (2.4.1.a.20171003.1658). Will kick the tires. So far so good.
Anyone else who wants to try it, you can use this version I compiled (built on FreeBSD 11.1).
Just ssh in and run the following cmds:fetch https://s3.amazonaws.com/pub-ro/dpinger3.tgz tar xvfz dpinger3.tgz pkill -lf /usr/local/bin/dpinger mv /usr/local/bin/dpinger /usr/local/bin/dpinger.old cp /root/dpinger /usr/local/bin/dpinger
Now go to Status > Services and start dpinger again
edit: why the pkill you ask? Dunno, I tried to stop dpinger gracefully from the GUI and it doesn't stop, at least on my system… not sure if that's a bug or just my system being wonky...
edit2: so far this has survived a few in-place upgrades on my test box, but YMMV and it's possible that it gets overwritten. If you want to verify that you have the 3.0 version, here's the MD5:
# md5 /usr/local/bin/dpinger MD5 (/usr/local/bin/dpinger) = e3b1bb249dfed87c2e2e036bd70a03ac
dennypage: how about adding a –version switch that prints out the version to make it easier to see what you've got?

Thank you Denny (and NOYB) :D

If someone does a PR, I'll test it.

Don't think it's currently possible to submit PR's with binaries? am I wrong? If you want to test you can scroll up 5 posts for a download link to a version I compiled.

if i upgrade will dpinger get overwritten and need to reapply this??
version 3.0 seem to be problem free for me
-
Yes, you should expect that it will be overwritten. Dpinger is part of the base pfSense install.

Will this make it in for 2.4.2 or 2.4.3 ?
-
It's not currently in the 2.4.2 snapshots, but I expect that it will show up as soon as Renato has some time. He's already updated it in the FreeBSD ports collection. https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports?view=revision&revision=451226

Dpinger 3.0 will appear in 2.4.2. Renato says it should appear in snapshots today.
-
Nice, thank you
-
Nice! don't need to manually load it anymore after testing 2.4.2 builds.
-
Special thanks to NOYB for raising the issue, and for the patience displayed while doing so.

Hi,
will this replace apinger in the mid-/long-term?
