fping requires either root or CAP_NET_PING to work, otherwise it is useless. Use INSTALL_SUID so that fping will be setuid root, and thus it will be usable by non-root users. fping knows to drop root priviledges after it parses the command line and creates the ping socket. You actually get a lot less code running as root when you make it setuid root and run it from an unprivileged user. This is the same way net/iputils already handles "ping", which has the same requirements. Signed-off-by: Henrique de Moraes Holschuh <henrique@nic.br>

|
|
fping is a ping like program which uses the Internet Control Message Protocol
|
|
(ICMP) echo request to determine if a target host is responding. fping
|
|
differs from ping in that you can specify any number of targets on the command
|
|
line, or specify a file containing the lists of targets to ping. Instead of
|
|
sending to one target until it times out or replies, fping will send out a
|
|
ping packet and move on to the next target in a round-robin fashion.
