DNS PING UTILITY

Post by Maplassie_GTR »

I just moved from Vista to Xp again, cause of various issues.

I had a cool vista Sidebar gadget, that I could customize with my Firewalls i need to monitor. You enter the ip adress or DNS name, and it constantly pings that adress/name, and reports up or downtime via Trafficlight system.

Name+ Redlight means firewall is down.
Name+ Greenlight means firewall is up.

Now Ofcoarse I dont have the sidrebar anymore. Anyone know of a similar program for xp? I have a secondary screen on my pc that is dedicated just for this, and now ofcoarse I can't LOL.

I have around 50 Firewalls I need to monitor like this, and with the Vista Sidebar gadget I could keep track of all 50, and it helped tremendously.
