Thanks for writing this, just what I was looking for.
Had one small problem the ping page did not work in IE v6 (I know but is my works SOE) yet it worked fine in my firefox.
I pinned this down to the 2nd last line in header.php as follows:
< !– Written by [NICK] –>
< !– See http://www.linickx.com — >–>
Just the closing of the comment field for your website has an extra space ie — > not –>
Anyway thanks again fo the scripts.

Hi - I’m a Nagios newbie who has discovered your ping & traceroute script.
Can you suggest how to integrate these in Nagios? So that I can click on one of the icons in the status map and ping that host?

Sadly Erik it’s not quite that clever, the best you can manage is editing the page in the left frame to include a link to “ping tool” (then selecting the host you’d like to ping).
Take a look in the web root you installed nagios, there is like two html files, one that does the frameset, and the other that is the menu, I’m away from a nagios box at the moment so I can’t direct you exactly right now, feel free to contact me if you have any problems.
I would like to include your functionality, but at the moment most of the front end is complied cgi, when the front end becomes extendible - which I believe is on the development road map - I will definatley look into this.
All The best
