Toren | Summary: Traceroute implementation using TCP packets | URL: http://michael.toren.net/code/tcptraceroute/ | Description: | The widespread use of firewalls on the modern Internet, many of the | packets that traceroute(8) sends out end up being filtered, making it | impossible to completely trace the path to the destination. However, | in many cases, these firewalls will permit inbound TCP packets to | specific ports that hosts sitting behind the firewall are listening for | connections on. By sending out TCP SYN packets instead of UDP or ICMP | ECHO packets, tcptraceroute is able to bypass the most common firewall | filters. | Files: ______________________________________________________________________ The OpenPKG Project www.openpkg.org Developer Communication List openpkg-dev@openpkg.org
