are you supposed to be able to "ping" specific pages of websites, or just the domain name?

(sorry, i think my jargon is a bit off there, not sure)
I'm trying to work out what's going on with my podcasts not downloading properly, to see whether it was my pod-catching software or the connection i tried doing a ping on the podcast URL e.g. www.abc.net.au/rn/podcast/feeds/ockham.xml and it failed (i got "could not find host"), it works for the first part of it though www.abc.net.au
I can get to the xml page in a web browser though, and ping doesn't work on the podcasts which have been downloading right either.
