I used the following article to get traceroute working on my FreeBSD box (refer Page 3):
http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/bsd/2001/06/01/FreeBSD_Basics.html
Also, because I was blocking outbound UDP, I had to enable a range of UDP ports. Traceroute's man page had the relevant range. I'm between installs and away from my notes at the moment so I can't give you the specifics, sorry.
Hope that helps,
Adrian. -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adrian Waters [EMAIL PROTECTED] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
