The answer you needed:

perleo,

without giving you the WHOLE answer, the following code will ping each IP address in the requested file and store the results in the array @results Smilie
Code:
#!/perl/bin/perl -w

use strict;
use Net::SMTP; 

# get list of ip's to ping 
open (PINGFILE, "< c:\\pinghosts.txt") or die "Can't open PingHost list: $!"; 

my @pinglist;
my @results;
my $holder;

while (my $line = <PINGFILE>) { 
	chomp $line;
	# place the host ipaddress in the array @pinglist
	push @pinglist, $line; 
} 

# now ping all machines
foreach my $host (@pinglist) {
	# place results of ping in $holder 
	$holder = `ping $host`;
	# place contents of $holder into the array @results
	push @results, $holder; 
}

NOTE: check the location of the file to open - I changed it for testing purposes.

Let me know how it goes

NAME
macping - A tool for pinging other RouterOS or mactelnetd devices SYNOPSIS
mactelnet [options] <MAC-Address|hostname> DESCRIPTION
This tool enables you to ping other RouterOS or MAC-Telnetd enabled devices. You can ping either a hostname or a MAC address. If speci- fied, the hostname (identity) will be looked up via MNDP discovery. OPTIONS
These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax. A summary of options is included below. -f Fast mode, do not wait before sending next ping request. The next ping will be sent immediately when the last ping is received. This cannot be used with -c 0 -s Specify the amount of bytes to send in each ping packet, up to ~1400 bytes. -c Number of packets to send before exiting. A value of 0 means unlimited packets and the tool must be exited with Control + C. -h Show summary of options. -v Show version of program. SEE ALSO
