Check if a host is reachable and accepting connections on a specified port.

 The host and port to ping are specified with the <tt>:host</tt> and <tt>:port</tt> options. The port
 can be either a port number or port name for a well known port (i.e. "smtp" and 25 are
 equivalent). The default timeout to wait for a response is 2 seconds. This can be
 changed with the <tt>:timeout</tt> option.

 By default, the host name will be included in the output. If this could pose a security
 risk by making the existence of the host known to the world, you can supply the <tt>:alias</tt>
 option which will be used for output purposes. In general, you should supply this option
 unless the host is on a private network behind a firewall.

 === Example

   IsItWorking::Handler.new do |h|
     h.check :ping, :host => "example.com", :port => "ftp", :timeout => 4
   end
