First viable version of TcpPing

TcpPing: A portable TCP ping tool

How to use it

On OS X

First you may need to have Mono installed.

In the following example I will assume that the TcpPing.exe is placed in $HOME/bin/.

If you want to ping localhost on port 80, you can run from terminal using

/usr/local/bin/mono $HOME/bin/TcpPing.exe localhost:80

And you may get the output like

Pinging localhost:80 [127.0.0.1:80]:
time = 3.693 ms
time = 0.325 ms
time = 0.336 ms
time = 0.302 ms
--- 127.0.0.1:80 ping statistics ---
round-trip min/avg/max = 0.302/3.693/1.164 ms

You can also ping localhost with IP

/usr/local/bin/mono $HOME/bin/TcpPing.exe 127.0.0.1:80

IPv6 is not supported in this version.

Wrap in a shell script

You can also wrap the .NET programme in a shell script so that you will not need to input mono each time.

The script tcpping.sh contains

#!/bin/sh
/usr/local/bin/mono $HOME/bin/TcpPing.exe "$@"

And you can run TcpPing with

./tcpping.sh localhost:80
