Re: pinger - ping a range of hosts

in reply to pinger - ping a range of hosts

I only have 2 comments really :)

Your regexp for IP's is flawed, I can enter 999.999.999.999, which obviously isn't a real IP.
I found something similar to this in the Ram book
(?:(?:[01]?\d?\d|2[0-4]\d|25[0-5])\.?){4}
Disclaimer: I realize this may not be the most efficent regex, but it does work, right?
If you're on a UNIX machine, you could always use nmap

The errata for Perl Cookbook at O'Reilly has a modified ip validation re. It is also in ping for ppt by me. `m{ ^ ( \d \| [01]?\d\d \| 2[0-4]\d \| 25[0-5] ) \. ( \d \| [01]?\d\d \| 2[0-4]\d \| 25[0-5] ) \. ( \d \| [01]?\d\d \| 2[0-4]\d \| 25[0-5] ) \. ( \d \| [01]?\d\d \| 2[0-4]\d \| 25[0-5] ) $ # from the Perl Cookbook, Reci +pe 6.23, }xo # pages 218-9, as fixed in the + 01/00 reprint` [download] HTH -- idnopheq Apply yourself to new problems without preparation, develop confidence in your ability to to meet situations as they arrise. ~ Shunryu Suzuki	[reply] [d/l]

١.٢.٣.٤ is not a valid IP, it matches the regex though :)	[reply]
