Here is the output:

 1:  195.75.145.33 (195.75.145.33)                          0.074ms pmtu
16436
 1:  195.75.145.33 (195.75.145.33)                          0.039ms reached
 1:  195.75.145.33 (195.75.145.33)                          0.028ms reached

I tried shutting down localhost with:

ifconfig lo down.

Now I can't ping 195.75.145.33 anymore (as all the other 195.75.145.xx
addresses).

And now tracepath gives:

1:  send failed
     Resume: pmtu 65535

So, for some reason, seems it always uses the 'lo' device...

Any idea?
