Hi,

I use web applicaton (net-mgmt/phpipam) which should have the ability
to check hosts' availability via ping. I can even specify path to ping
executable.

This functionality does not work on FreeBSD by default, and suggested
workaround is to set setuid bit on /sbin/ping.

I don't like to modify permissions of base files. Is there an
alternative solution? e.g. a port?

Thank you in advance,
