Hmmm...

If you need to do a PING, then yes that would work..

Let's see what else SScrRun.dll can do.

IPNetwork Object
> DNSLookup
> DNSLookupEx
> Ping
> SendSyslogMessage

LMNetwork Object
> SendNetMessage
> NBTNetwork
> QueryNodeStatus

SNMPManager Object
> Get
> GetNext
> Set
> GenerateTrap

Variables Collection Object
> Add
> Remove
> RemoveAll

Variable Object
> PostIPCEvent

You get the idea. [Smile]
