A friend of mine who has SuSE 10.1 and a Linksys router (I think an older BEFSR41) is complaining that either the router or Linux is blocking traceroute. I have both SuSE 10.0 and SuSE 10.1 and a newer Linksys router and traceroute from my systems through the router work fine.
I know that he allows ICMP, and he can successfully ping other systems, but traceroute simply stops at the router.
I have the same behaviour from my SuSE 9.3 to my 7.3 through my Comtrend 536+: I can not traceroute from one to the other, although ping works perfectly. I have not tried tracing an external server... wait... yes, that one works, I just traced to lists.suse.com in 14 hops.
However he can successfully do a traceroute from a Windows box.
That I haven't tried - after all, I boot windows about once per quarter... - -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.76 iD8DBQFEfI5FtTMYHG2NR9URArnWAJ9896tojhrxKcenMYRe5/N76d3MWwCeNoxC OkWjqcgB9EueiP6UdOKMZFc= =MEbh -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
