traceroute.cgi

This script uses traceroute to find the path from the remstats host to some other specified host. It's intended to be called off a host's toolbar, but that's not required. For example, you could trace the path from here (trevelyan.sourceworks.com) to ftp.uu.net with a URL like:

	/remstats/traceroute.cgi?host=ftp.uu.net

There are other options that you can specify:

  • no_names - just shows IP numbers instead of looking up the domain-names
  • ASNs - look up the Autonomous System Numbers (ASNs) for the IP number of each hop. It can be useful for figuring out which networks you are traversing.
  • owners - look up the "owner" via SOA records
  • fast - continues on to the next hop as soon as the current one answers
