first I am asking for a script. and I need it to be run in tcsh shell.
I tried to do one, but I always stuck in endless loop. so please help me.
well first, post the script that you have already written. then we can go from there. very rarely will you find someone who has the time to write out a script for you, especially if you are not willing to write one out on your own. not only that, but it can be insulting asking people to do work for you. were here to help, not to do work for you.
basically, all you would have to do is see the man page for ping.
Code:
ping -c $count -t $time_to_live $host_name
so in the script that you are writing, you could first either assign $count whatever value you want, or ask for user input. this argument should be in there otherwise ping will go on for a while. take userinput for the -t flag and store it in $time_to_live
and finally define the $host_name of the machine to be pinged.
to take command line arguments with bash, go to tldp.org and search for the advanced bash shell scripting guide.

Hi,
When I pinged a machin, I got to be seen a different kind of
reply from that machine.
This is as below : "Reply from 136.128.11.116: Source quench received." Which I felt like an un-usual message.
So what does this mean.
Regards & Thanks in advance.
