Checking for an internet connectio

[Peter Haworth]

Hi Phil,
Double checking on the code below in your script.  The man page for ping in
OS X and Linux say that ping has an exit code of zero if no errors are
encountered.  Should the test on tResult be for zero or have you found that
empty works too?

Thanks,
Pete
