#= SYNOPSIS
#
# require 'ping'
#
# puts "'jimmy' is alive and kicking" if Ping.pingecho('jimmy', 10)
#
#= DESCRIPTION
#
# This module contains routines to test for the reachability of remote hosts.
# Currently the only routine implemented is pingecho().
#
# pingecho() uses a TCP echo (_not_ an ICMP echo) to determine if the
# remote host is reachable. This is usually adequate to tell that a remote
# host is available to rsh(1), ftp(1), or telnet(1) to.
#
#= WARNING
#
# pingecho() may block for a long period if name resolution is slow. Require
# 'resolv-replace' to use non-blocking name resolution.
#
module Ping
# return true if we can open a connection to the hostname or IP address
# +host+ on port +service+ (which defaults to the "echo" port) waiting up to
# +timeout+ seconds.
