Thank you everyone for quick replies!
What you told me made me think... different :)
In other words, if it costs me so much trouble to implement the ping so
that it would be compatible with both Mac OS 9 and X, maybe I can do
without it?
The thing is, ping is the only way to know if a host is online. But
maybe you know something else?
If I do not know everything about the host - how could I know exactly
if it is online or not?
I understand that I could try connecting to some port. But if I fail to
connect this might just mean that this host just does not listen on
this port.
Any ideas are greatly appreciated.
Again, thanks very much for your help!
Regards,
Igor
