ping?

Need some help pinging a server, it says im supposed to send the unit "info" to get the info i want back, but whenever i send info i get "Bad parameter info."

so im typing -
ping ip "info"

and its returning "Bad parameter info."

i think im sending the string wrong..how should i be?

What program are you using to ping? For the Windows ping command, just use this format:

ping ipaddress

... and it will send 4 ping requests, each with a simple 32-byte ASCII string.

Regards,

im pinging servers for a game, and i can ping them normal. the way to get info off them you send the word "info" to it

ping -v TOS (type of service) might be what you are looking for
