I watched a network connection that somethime lost the connection. I used ping
to see if there was any delay in the network. But when the network lost the
connection, it was not detected by ping when I looked at delay.
I wanted to see when I lost the connection and when it was OK again. And I
want to do it without having to look at the screen all the time, something
like
# ping <some arguments> | tee ping.out
go home and then look a ping.out file the next morning and say "aaah.. at 7 pm
it failed..."
