The hadeeth is authentic and the feet must be washed. Wiping can be only applied over socks!

Narrated `Abdullah bin `Amr: Once the Prophet () remained behind us in a journey. He joined us while we were performing ablution for the prayer which was over-due. We were just passing wet hands over our feet (and not washing them properly) so the Prophet () addressed us in a loud voice and said twice or thrice: “Save your heels from the fire.” washing areas has to be “washed” it can’t replace by wiping-“mash” I would like to know if the above hadith is authentic?
