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. However he can successfully do a traceroute from a Windows box.
If he can traceroute from Windows,then the problem is likely not the router. This is where ethereal comes in handy.
