Yes, path is correct. If I run it manually, it works
Code:
bash-3.2# crontab -l | grep -i ping
* * * * * /usr/sbin/ping 172.23.xx.xx > /tmp/ping_test
bash-3.2# which ping
/usr/sbin/ping
bash-3.2# cat /tmp/ping_test
bash-3.2# /usr/sbin/ping 172.23.xx.xx > /tmp/ping_test
bash-3.2# cat /tmp/ping_test
172.23.xx.xx is alive
bash-3.2#
