    huh? ping what host? Have you tried the ping command?
    I think you'd get a much better response if you explain what you are trying to do.

    Knock yourself out;

    From most OS's, just run "ping somehostname" at a command prompt, and it'll send a few pings to somehostname. That's about it really.

    Re pinging without the host being "aware" of it, given that the whole idea of a ping is that they receive your packets and respond to confirm they got them, no, not really.

    They'd have to be looking for someone pinging them though, the average user wouldn't know unless they were monitoring packets coming in.

    Yeah. I'm going to go ahead and lock this. Not really a programming issue.
