Hi Thomas,

I have not found a good solution yet. I did find a tiny app called "iaxping".

http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/3029621/com/iaxping-0-1mdv2007.0.i586.rpm.html

This worked well to test the connection, but I could not get it to
exit cleanly. I was thinking I might try to fix the code, but I'm not
much of a C programmer. The source code (iaxping.c) is available
online. I did not actually try to recompile the code so the problem
might just be with the rpm.

After you look at it, let me know your thoughts. If nothing else,
maybe we get together and hire a decent programmer to fix the app to
exit properly with a return code.

Regards,
David
