I attempted to do a traceroute to a router at the office (24.167.95.17)
which is not responding to pings. However, after switching on the debug
mode all I get back are "Network is unreachable" errors. Without debug
mode all you get back are 30 lines of "* * *". I've now tried about
two dozen times to different destinations. All fail with the same error.
DNS is working as the first line below shows.
jim@den2:~ > /usr/sbin/traceroute -dvw .5 www.utexas.edu
traceroute to www.utexas.edu (128.83.40.16), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets
1 sendto: Network is unreachable
traceroute: wrote www.utexas.edu 40 chars, ret=-1
*sendto: Network is unreachable

*sendto: Network is unreachable
traceroute: wrote www.utexas.edu 40 chars, ret=-1

2 sendto: Network is unreachable
traceroute: wrote www.utexas.edu 40 chars, ret=-1
All other internet connectivity seems to work (ping, nmap, netscape, krn,
sendmail, ???) except traceroute. Here's the current routing. 192.168.81.1
is a LinkSys 4-port cable router. It and all of the current lan stations
are static IP.
jim@den2:~ > netstat -nr
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Iface
192.168.81.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U eth0

0.0.0.0 192.168.81.1 0.0.0.0 UG eth0
Any ideas why traceroute is bombing? It "usedta" work.
