Unix Tip #4617- October 31, 2024
PING THE HOST TABLE
There's no need to grep and
pipe the output into awk
(you can "grep" with awk.)
awk '/^[0-9]/{print $1}' /etc/hosts |xargs -l ping -c 1 $1
This tip generously supported by: bmaclean@silverplatter.com
And another:
awk '/^[^#]/ {system("ping -c 1 "$1)}' < /etc/hosts
