I would think Smokeping is a better application if all you want to do
is monitor pings.

Hi,
I am monitoring multiple systems that use a satellite connection which is
causing me an issue with the conn tests as the first ping will almost always
be 1200-1500ms but then subsequent pings will be a “stable” 700ms.
Is there any way that I can get the hobbitping to ignore the first ping
result received and use the 2nd instead ? I was thinking of using a shell
script to do this but this would be a last resort as it adds extra overhead
into the conn testing for the system performance.
Any ideas welcome.
Thanks,
Ger.
