Re: what's the new xemacs.org IP address?
You might try `fft' which uses TCP instead of ICMP.
This email is to inform you of release '2.0-Beta3' of 'FFT' through
freshmeat.net. All URLs and other useful information can be found at
http://freshmeat.net/projects/fft/
The changes in this release are as follows:
This revision adds a new trace engine under the hood that can detect
stateful firewalls, reduce no-reply hops, et al. It is, however, an
early access beta of the new engine.
Project description:
FFT is an alternative traceroute program for displaying the route
packets take to an IP network host. Unlike Van Jacobson's traceroute,
which is available on almost every platform today, FFT uses TCP in
order to elicit ICMP TIME_EXCEEDEDs or other IP route data. As a
result, FFT often executes much faster and sees behind some
configurations of firewalls. It also does AS number and netblock name
lookups en route. Most importantly, FFT can trace specific TCP-based
protocol routes (not just IP) to assist network engineers in
isolating network and application problems.
