ROb,

YOu can always try using Net_Ping::ping()
read about here:
http://pear.php.net/manual/en/html/package.networking.net-ping.ping.html
It is supposed to return "returns message of the ping command"

Here is an example code:

---------------------
<?php

require_once 'Net/Ping.php' ;

$ping = new Net_Ping;
$ping->setArgs(array("count" => 5,
                     "size"  => 32,
                     "ttl"   => 512
                    )
              );
var_dump($ping->ping("example.com"));

?>
----------------

Néstor :-)
