This is using Fedora Core 5, which takes the command as tracepath 24.221.130.104/33434 I think that the root cause needs to be understood and corrected. Thanks!

Yes, I know that the port number is not a solution to your problem. It's only another bug that the patch fixes. The patch makes more changes in the code of tracepath. Please apply the patch first and then test it again. It works for me: mildew> patch -p1 < ../iputils-20020927-trace_stop.patch patching file tracepath.c ... mildew> ./tracepath 24.221.130.104 ... ... 20: sl-bb22-stk-15-0.sprintlink.net (144.232.4.242) asymm 16 218.962ms 21: sl-bb22-stk-15-0.sprintlink.net (144.232.4.242) asymm 16 217.624ms 22: sl-bb23-sj-10-0.sprintlink.net (144.232.20.113) asymm 15 216.131ms 23: sl-bbwl-4-0-0.sprintlink.net (144.228.111.42) asymm 16 252.138ms 24: cpe-24-221-130-104.az.sprintbbd.net (24.221.130.104) asymm 19 274.079ms reached Resume: pmtu 1500 hops 24 back 19 I think the root cause is not in tracepaht but in the reply from 24.221.130.104 (it sends "host unreachable" instead of "connection refused") btw. traceroute has the same problem with this machine.

This led me to the bug-report on https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=174032 which states that changing the port for tracepath to 33434 because it "...was assigned by IANA for tracerouting..." fixed this behaviour. I'd suggest to incorporate the patches from this report if possible, though I made one _very_ unobtrusive that just changes the default port, which worked for me. Please either update this package for karmic (if that fixes this) or add this patch.
