Networking :: Can't Traceroute To Anything In Ubuntu
Sep 1, 2010
If I traceroute to google, it hits my router and stops there. Generically, my Setup is this. AT&T Uverse residential gateway ---> wired to 54g router running tomato ---> wireless ethernet bridge to 54gl router running tomato in another room ---> wired to ubuntu and win7 box.
The ATT RG hands its external IP over the the 54g running tomato. the 54gl running tomato is a wireless ethernet bride in the den running the same with 2 machines wired to. The two machines are static IP to the first router, which does all DCHP, stuff like that. The Windows box is fine. The subnets are the same. What should I be looking at to figure this out? This is the only "network" issue I have come across.
Why linux traceroute uses UDP protocol, we have basic ICMP protocol which is used in MS-windows tracert.Any specific use of traceroute using with UDP,TCP than ICMP?Windows is displaying all HOPs address but linux printing *.*.*
As i've installed the new fedora update packets ,i've seemed to develope a strange networking problem .. Network description Fedora 15 with 3 LAN adaptors eth0 > LAN (IP address 192.168.0.254)eth1 > network connected to a pppoe conection eth2 > WAN to another provider. Ok so let's ignore eth2 because i've disable mangle(i was using trafic shifting on some ports). So now i'm using it as a simple NAT server .. so the problem is : >>my server is not responding to the traceroute command is it should .. the network works thou but this is what i get. C:UsersDUAL>tracert google.ro
I've used linuxquestions.org from time to time, but never needed to register until now.An in-depth explanation of this issue is already described over here: [URL], so I will merely quote it again here - it seems nobody knows the solution over at Ubuntu's forums...:
Quote: I recently switched my home server from debian lenny to ubuntu maverick. I've managed to port all my configs and stuff and so far I'm very happy. There's one tiny thing that's griping me, that I never experienced before with debian's (older) packages/configuration... Here's the situation: My server dials up 2 pppoe (adsl) interfaces (different isp's) with split internet routes.
If I run a general traceroute to an internet IP, all the hops which are not routed via the same interface as the destination host/IP, will appear as "* * *" in the traceroute. This was never the case before and it would be preferred to see the IP's of all routers along the way regardless of whether they are routed... (I used to be able to see IP's like 10.0.0.x before through INTERNET traceroutes if they were hops along the way [IP's which would be unreachable if traced directly], and that's no longer the case) - isn't this kinda defeating the point of traceroute?
what the difference between the commands tracert and traceroute is? I need to run tracert as superuser, while traceroute is no problem in user mode.
Also, it appers like tracert is showing nodes completely different from traceroute:
Code: sudo tracert google.nl traceroute to google.nl (216.239.59.104), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets 1 192.168.1.254 (192.168.1.254) 1.078 ms 1.699 ms * 2 * * *
[Code]....
Another thing.. Is it correct to assume that hop 5 and 7 above are loadbalanced nodes? How should I interpret this result, is the traceroute initiating it's path three times? Otherwise it'd be rather strange as to display other addresses in the same node..
naman@naman-laptop:~$ traceroute google.co.in google.co.in: Name or service not known Cannot handle "host" cmdline arg `google.co.in' on position 1 (argc 1)
Then I tracked the IP address of google.com on [URL] and tried
naman@naman-laptop:~$ traceroute 74.125.77.99 traceroute to 74.125.77.99 (74.125.77.99), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets connect: Network is unreachable
I have to use my college proxy server to connect to the Internet. When I traceroute to a host within the LAN there is no problem. What should I do to be able to traceroute to a host outside my local network?
As root I get the following result: ngssuse:~ # traceroute -nI 10.200.123.45
Note: the -i and -I options were exchangedfor compability with LBL traceroute Use -I for ICMP, and -i <ifname> to specify the interface name unable to create ICMP send socket: Permission denied. Is this a bug?
Is there some traceroute-like tool that shows ports as well as IP addresses? This is more for seeing how NAT works (on my home network) than for a practical need.
I am a new learner. I need a simple scripts that compute the average ping time for hosts, and the average number of hosts that respond to pings during a traceroute. I have finished the ping part but I confused how to start the traceroute part
Code: #!/bin/bash #!/bin/sh txt=$* count=0; for host in $txt; do echo $host
I'm trying to use traceroute to view hop count between my machine and a specified external host but no matter what I give to it, it provides me the same output:
[Code]...
What am I doing wrong? Should I be disabling DNS caching? Is there a property I haven't set correctly? Just a small FYI, but I dual boot this computer with Win7 and it's tracert works fine. UPDATE: I also ran the command from a different network and it worked fine. I'm assuming I need a port forward then?
I want to give access to a student to a server in order to make repeated trials of traceroute to different hosts. We have realized that it is preferable to use the -T option, as it sends TCP packets that are less commonly blocked by firewalls. However, this option is only available to superusers, and I don't want to grant the student such privileges.
I ran two scans in Zenmap: 1) Quick scan plus and 2) Quick Traceroute. Quick scan plus, under the Nmap Output tab, has a field called "Network Distance". The Quick Traceroute report under the same tab lists the HOP and RTT time. I was thinking that for a given server, the value for the Network Distance would be the same as the HOP field when initiating the scans from the same server, but they are not.
Code: # traceroute -I 69.12.32.2 Note: the -i and -I options were exchangedfor compability with LBL traceroute Use -I for ICMP, and -i <ifname> to specify the interface name unable to create ICMP send socket: Permission denied Note that the command was done as root. This worked in 11.3.
And yes, it works without the "-I". But it should work with the "-I". One shouldn't have to boot into Windows, just to run "tracert" there.
when i am using traceroute command, it is giving the erro as follow: traceroute [URL]: Temporary failure in name resolution Cannot handle "host" cmdline arg [URL] on position 1 (argc 1)
I am having a heck of a time trying to find directions on networking my two computers together in order to share files. I have two machines running Ubuntu 10.10 Desktop & Netbook remix.
They are both connected to my wireless router to connect to the internet.
I just got connected to Charter Cable Internet service a few days ago and I'm having a weird problem with my home network. Prior to this my network worked fine. On my network I have a desktop running Ubuntu 9.10/64 and Virtualbox with WinXP installed, an HTPC with Ubuntu 9.10/32 installed and a laptop dual booted with Ubuntu 9.10/32 and WinXP. The desktop and HTPC are hard wired to a wireless router and the laptop is wireless. The cable modem is hard wired to the router. I have samba installed and UFW is disabled. The problem is: with the cable modem turned off or on standby, all machines connect to each other and can transfer files, etc just fine but when I activate the cable modem all of the machines can connect to the Internet but the machines running Ubuntu can't connect to each other on the home network. If I boot the laptop into Windows, it can connect to the Linux machines just fine but if I boot it into Linux, it won't connect to the Linux machines but it can connect to the Internet and as far as the desktop, Ubuntu won't connect to the network but Windows running in the Virtualbox with bridged networking can connect to all of the machines.
Im trying to make an ubuntu server box my entrypoint to my networking. Meaning itll function as a server, a firewall, and a gateway. so i already installed dhcp3 and a dns server.
I have 2 ethernet cards in it. So now i wonder, should i the second card into a router's modem/wan port and make the router a switch? or should i plug it into one of the routers lan ports?
I have 3 Dell Precision M4400 machines. After getting updates yesterday or today, I get random network dropouts like crazy, on wired or wireless. On one machine I was able to turn off ipv6 in grub and reboot, and it works now. However on the other 2 machines, still have the same problems. All 3 are running 9.10 64 bit. Is there a way I can back out the updates so the network works again? Anyone else see this behavior after updates today?
I'm try to create a mobile broadband connection using my Huawei E 1550 medem. but in Network manager there is not way to select my modem in the first step ( device selection step ) the drop down menu is locked. what to do ? how to configure my modem with ubuntu ?
I do have internet cause I am using it on W7. The only thing that I have done different is I left the pc on over night so I guess it went to suspend for the first time. Then I powered off. After turning the pc back on and logging in I have no internet. Not even with the Ethernet plugged directly in. There is supposed to be a little blue light on when it sees the wireless and that is off. When I click on the networking icon in the system tray it says networking disabled. It shows no wireless. When I plug directly in I still get nothing. I'm using 10.04
I just started having a problem with my 10.04 laptop a few days ago, maybe Thursday, last week. When the computer is plugged into my home network (standard 192.168.1.1 sort of IPs) it works fine, but when I try to connect to my work network (130.15.90.XX) I am unable to pick up an IP. The router in my office is working fine, all the windows boxes can connect.
I've also noticed that when the computer is plugged in at work the notification icon for the networking indicates it is looking for a wireless connection (rather than the normal up/down arrows), even if wireless is deactivated
I can set a static IP in /etc/network/interfaces and everything works, so it seems to be a DHCP problem?
I'm using a Packard Bell Easynote Tn36 laptop, and I'm having trouble with Ubuntu 10.10 and the wireless network card, (probably because of lack of driver). I.e. it is disabled.
Whenever I start up my laptop i do not get a wireless connection automatically. I have to rightclick network manager applet and select enable networking. After that everything works fine untill i shutdown and restart my laptop. I would like a way to change this so that my wifi connection is working whithout having to click something first..
I have a server with two ethernet ports. I configured eth0 to be static, set at 10.1.10.148. I plugged in another router into the other ethernet port in order to configure that router. I configured eth1 to use dhcp. Using /etc/network/interfaces rather than gnome network manager. When I did this, I lost internet connectivity (internet routes through eth0 of course)
- Why did I lose internet connectivity?
In order to recover internet activity, I had to disconnect the new router on eth1 of course, and do sudo ifdown eth1. That wasn't enough however. After rebooting numerous times and pulling out my hair, I finally tried configuring eth0 as dhcp, rather than static, and this fixed the problem.
- Why didn't sudo ifdown eth1 solve the problem? What information was saved between reboots that somehow remembered that I plugged in the new router? Because my thinking was if /etc/network/interfaces was identical, and the network topology was identical, after a reboot everything should be restored, but it wasn't.
