Same Result.

I don't believe it is a name resolution problem as I have tried with =
both IP's and names with the same result.  When tracerouting to a name =
here is the first line:

traceroute to www.freebsd.org (216.136.204.117), 64 hops max, 40 byte =
packets

As you can see name resolution appears to be ok.

Any other ideas?

Lee.

    Hi All,=20

    =20

    Perhaps someone can help me once again with a little annoyance.=20

    =20

    My network connection appears fine,  I can access Mail, News, Web =
etc.  Pings also work fine.=20

    =20

    However whenever I try to traceroute, anything beyond the initial =
hop (my router) is not returning I just get:-=20

    =20

    2    *    *    *=20

    3    *    *    *=20

    4    *    *    *=20

    5    *    *    * etc=20

    =20

    I though I may be my router, but the other 3 computers on my network =
(a RedHat 7.3   / Windows 98, Windows Me & a WIndows 2K laptop) Work =
fine.=20

    =20

    So then I though ok perhaps it is the default firewall on the =
FreeBSD 4.6 installation.  I tried listing the firewall rules, but just =
got:-=20

    =20

    ipfw: getsockopt (IP_FW_GET): Protocol not available=20

    =20

    Next I tried flushing any firewall rules, says "yes" I was sure,  =
but I got the same error as above.=20

    =20

    Can anyone shed some light onto the problem and a possible solution, =
cheers.=20

    =20

    Lee.=20
