I have a branch on my network that returns about 85% of pings(don't ask).
Is there someway I can tune fping(or ping) to try more than 1 time before
setting the conn to red and notifiying people?  It would be nice if it could
send a couple of pings and only care that at least one ICMP echo gets back.
The FPINGCMD setting is used to define the exact "fping" command that
Hobbit runs. So you can add any options you like for fping to that
setting in hobbitserver.cfg, to make it try harder to reach a host.
