echoping appears to compile and run at least on Tru64 (ex-Digital
Unix, ex-OSF/1), Solaris, Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, IRIX and AI/X. You
do not have to be root to install it.
Just type "./configure", then "make", "make test" if you wish (some
tests depend on local servers and/or Internet access, interpret with
care) and then (as root if necessary), "make install".
There is also a 'make fulltest' if you want to test more things (which
may not be available on your platform).
"configure" has some options:
--disable-http (suppress the HTTP support)
--disable-smtp (suppress the SMTP support)
--enable-icp (add the ICP support, to monitor Web proxies like Squid)
--with-ssl[=/where/is/ssl] (add the SSL support, you will need
the OpenSSL library <http://www.openssl.org/>)
--disable-ttcp (suppress the T/TCP support which is enabled only if
your system supports it - FreeBSD does. See
<http://www.kohala.com/start/ttcp.html>)
Standard "autoconf/configure" options are supported such as --prefix
to set the installation root directory.
If 'echoping -h' replies with a "404" error while the file really exists,
check first that you use the FQDN of the server on the command line
(this is a consequence of the HTTP 1.1 protocol, not a bug in echoping
and this will show only if the HTTP server uses "virtual hosting").
To report a bug, email Stephane Bortzmeyer
<bortz@users.sourceforge.net> (if you have an account at SourceForge,
you can use their bug reporting tool, too). If the problem is at the
"./configure" step, do not forget to send the config.log.
