This is a sed control file we use to report no return after doing a ping to a number of remote computers. Run this file after specifying sed -n -f following_code log_of_pings .
Code:
/ ping statistics / {
                    N
                   / 0 packets / {
                        s/^....//
                        s/ .*//
                        p
                      }
                   }

You may have to experiment with the s commands to format the name of your remote computers. The N appends the line following "ping statistics" so it can be checked for "0 packets" while info on the remote computer is on the "same" line (before a line feed).

NAME
Poll - Contains information specifying when the UNIX-to-UNIX Copy Program (UUCP) should poll designated remote computers SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/uucp/Poll DESCRIPTION
The /usr/lib/uucp/Poll file contains information for polling remote computers. Each entry in the Poll file contains the name of a remote computer to call, followed by a <TAB> character, and a sequence of hourly intervals expressed in digits. These are the hourly intervals at which the local system polls a remote system; you must specify interval times as digits between 0 and 23. The format of entries in the Poll file is: sys-name<TAB>hour Note that you must be logged in as root to edit the Poll file, which is owned by the uucp login ID. The Poll file is used with the crontabs/uucp file, the uudemon.hour script, and the uudemon.poll script. Together, these files are respon- sible for initiating automatic calls to remote systems to perform certain maintenance tasks. EXAMPLES
The following example provides polling of computer eagle every 4 hours: eagle 0 4 8 12 16 20 The follwing example provides polling of computer hera every hour: hera 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 FILES
