fping has been mothballed since 2002. A new maintainer has taken over this project, set up a new website, fping.org, and committed the project on GitHub. Change homepage. Upgrade to version 3.1 Add head url on GitHub Remove `--man` because it uses a modern configure that works. Add caveat about this software needing to be owned by root and run as root or with the setuid bit set. An issue is open with the developer to see if there is a workaround for that.

The issue I opened for @schweikert is this: schweikert/fping#7 |

Looks good to me---thanks for the update! |

Update: I heard back from the developer in the issue linked above that it should be possible to craft a non-setuid fping, and he would welcome any help from a Mac programmer with experience. |
