ping is missing ? - Vorms - 19th May, 2014 04:37 AM
Hello, I can't use ping from the raspberry Xbian 12.2.
Is that some additional package I have to add ?
thanks in advance !
Best regards
Thierry

ping is standard Debian, so it should work.
What command are you using and what error message do you get

Hello,
Many thanks for your reply.

Terminal
xbian@xbian ~ $ dpkg-query -S $(which ping)
inetutils-ping: /bin/ping
inetutils-ping: /bin/ping
which leads to:
Code:
sudo apt-get install inetutils-pingNote that you probably want to check your system, as inetutils-ping is listed as a dependency of a system package (xbian-package-cec, which is a dependency of xbian-package-xbmc).

root@xbian:/bin# ping 192.168.1.1
Was the "#" a typo?
What about just ping 192.168.0.1?
It is part of the standard distro, it would not need to be installed.
Check to see if it exists in /bin and it's permissions. There should also be ping6
If it does not exist, then something has deleted it.
**Have** you been doing anything unusual?
