You can use something like fping, but if your heart is set on a script, then
something like:

cat /tmp/testips | while read ip; do echo $ip; ping -c 1 $ip | grep icmp_seq
/tmp/ping.output; done

or 

while read ip; do echo $ip; ping -c 1 $ip | grep "64 bytes" >>
/tmp/ping.output; done < /tmp/testis

or something like those

Subject: Tools for pen test, 

For the sake of completeness, every time I perform a penetration testing I
need to PING, NSLOOUKUP, TRACERT, etc. The problem is that tools like PING
only can accept single IP Address so every time I do a penetration testing
for multiple IPs, I need to execute the ping command manually and save all
the corresponding evidence. I knew tools like NMAP can perform ping for
multiple IP addresses with single command but I still wanted to use legacy
*Nix tools like ping, nslookup, etc. 

I was wondering has anyone in here had a shell script that can execute tools
like ping, nslookup and pipe it into a file? Or knew a shell script that can
do this kind of job?

To give you an illustration, the shell script that I am looking for should
can perform this kind of job.

Program 192.168.0.1-20 -> will ping (using *nix ping command from host ID
192.168.0.1 - 192.168.0.20 and save all the output into a file

Cheers, 
John
