Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Ping Response from the host name Post 302825681 by Scrutinizer on Tuesday 25th of June 2013 01:01:56 AM

You could try something like:
Code:
if ping -c 1 -t 1 10.0.1.13 >/dev/null; then
  echo yes
else
  echo no
fi

Which would be using the return code of the ping command to check whether it was successful or not. The ping command line options are not the same on every platform, so if that does not work, could you specify what OS and version you are using?
