Ping/X

Mabrys Ping/X ActiveX control offers easy to use internet ping functionality. Using Ping/X you can test for the existance of machines on the net and you can determine what the latency time is for transfer between the machine doing the ping and that being pinged. In addition to the usual ICMP and RAW type pings Mabrys Ping/X supports TCP and UDP pings. These alternatives are provided because some systems, mostly running UNIX, can be set up so that they dont respond to the normal ping requests.

The 32-bit Ping/X comes as both an ActiveX control (OCX) and a COM object (DLL), so you can use it in nearly any modern programming environment. As a light ActiveX control/COM Object, Ping/X doesnt require any bulky MFC DLLs to run. Your web-based applications (VBScript, ASP, etc.) will download faster, your installation package will be smaller, and youll have no problems with different versions of DLLs on your users systems. And, because its both an ActiveX control and COM Object, Ping/X will run in Visual Basic, Visual FoxPro, Internet Explorer, Delphi and any other environment that supports either ActiveX controls or COM objects.
