Hi there. i have this script but its outputting erroneous results.. some of the machines are not pingable but its not reporting them... can anyone help? thank you in advance! @echo off echo The following machines are not pingable:>>3167_PingCheck.txt echo.>>3167_PingCheck.txt for /f "tokens=1 delims=" %%a, in (3167_Assets.txt) do ( ping -n 1 %%a IF %ERRORLEVEL% == 1 echo %%a >>3167_PingCheck.txt ) echo The following machines are not pingable:>>3256_PingCheck.txt echo.>>3256_PingCheck.txt for /f "tokens=1 delims=" %%b, in (3256_Assets.txt) do ( ping -n 1 %%b IF %ERRORLEVEL% == 1 echo %%b >>3256_PingCheck.txt ) echo The following machines are not pingable:>>4661_PingCheck.txt echo.>>4661_PingCheck.txt for /f "tokens=1 delims=" %%c, in (4661_Assets.txt) do ( ping -n 1 %%c IF %ERRORLEVEL% == 1 echo %%c >>4661_PingCheck.txt ) echo The following machines are not pingable:>>5510_PingCheck.txt echo.>>5510_PingCheck.txt for /f "tokens=1 delims=" %%d, in (5510_Assets.txt) do ( ping -n 1 %%d IF %ERRORLEVEL% == 1 echo %%d >>5510_PingCheck.txt )

@echo off > log for /f %%I in (IPlist.txt) do ( ping %%I | find "Reply" > nul if errorlevel 1 echo %%I did not reply >> log ) ===================================== If at first you don't succeed, you're about average. M2
