<div>
Something like this would do it.<br />
<br />
ping -t &gt;&nbsp;c:\pingoutput.txt<br />
<br />
Possibly <br />
<br />
ping -t &gt;&gt;&nbsp;c:\pingoutput.txt <br />
(to append)<br />
<br />
give it a go now, you will manually have to stop the ping mind.<br />

ping -t > c:\pingoutput.txt

Possibly

ping -t >> c:\pingoutput.txt

Thanks thats worked<br />
Is there any way of putting a time stamp on it?

An incrimental time stamp throughout the log you mean? not possible with the command line tool afaik<br />
<br />
There may be a third party tool that can do that though, i will have a look and see what i can find

del ping.txt<br />
:start<br />
echo %date%%time &gt;&gt;ping.txt<br />
ping -n 1 servername |find /i &quot;packets&quot; &gt;&gt;ping.txt<br />
<br />
goto start<br />
<br />
replace servername with you server name<br />
if you're looking for errors look for 100% loss in the ping.txt file

CAPTURE PING OUTPUT

Networking software modules are interfaced with a framework implemented on the machine's operating system that implements the networking functionality of the operating system. The best known frameworks are the TCP/IP model and the OSI model. Systems typically do not use a single protocol to handle a transmission. Instead they use a set of cooperating protocols, sometimes called a protocol family or protocol suite.[9] Some of the best known protocol suites include: IPX/SPX, X.25, AX.25, AppleTalk and TCP/IP. Other protocols indirectly related to networking include the hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) and its related technologies, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), Domain Name Server (DNS) and other Internet protocols.

Networking Protocols

Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) is the set of networking protocols that define end-to-end connectivity specifying how data should be packeted, addressed, transmitted, routed and received at the destination. This functionality is organized into four abstraction layers which are used to sort all related protocols according to the scope of networking involved.
