Hi!
I recently found source for Van J's traceroute program.  It is a really
neat program for finding out what gateways your packets are travelling
through, and for seeing how long it takes to get there.  Unfortunately,
I can't get it to work on my Sun 3/260 running Sun OS 3.5.  I went and
installed all the new TCP/IP from Berkeley, which includes new "slow
start" algorithms, and also made the patch to raw_output that was in
the README for traceroute.  I reconfigured my kernel with all this
new tcp/ip stuff.  The kernel works fine.  All existing networking
functions still function.  Traceroute compiled without serious errors.
But, when I run it, it dumps core.  Has anyone out there gotten this
program to work on a Sun running OS 3.5 ?, or for that matter, Sun OS 3.x?
I would appreciate hearing from you!  Thanks in advance!
