I am trying to make a script that will ping servers and if they are down, send a message. If they are up it won't send a message.

The problem I am having is if there are more than one, it won't work.

Here is a sample of my script:
**********sample begins below*************
while (true)
do
sleep 30
if ping -i 3 -c 3 192.168.0.222
then
continue
else
echo "192.168.0.222 down!" | mail -s "222 down" veewee77 at alltel.net 
break
fi
done
**********sample ends above***************


If I add a second (or more) to it, it fails to work properly.
**********broken sample begins below********
while (true)
do
sleep 30
if ping -i 3 -c 3 192.168.0.222
then
continue
else
echo "192.168.0.222 down!" | mail -s "222 down" me at here.there 
break
fi
if ping -i 3 -c 3 192.168.0.223
then
continue
else
echo "192.168.0.223 down!" |mail -s "223 down" me at here.there 
done
***********broken sample ends above**************

Obviously a bogus email address, but it is for reference.
 Any ideas?
