Re: traceroute command anywhere?


Thanks Brian, I tried traceroute in Windows, didn't work, but with your tracert command suggestion it works. I get this output:

Tracing route to robertbody.com [206.53.60.7]
over a maximum of 30 hops:

Trace complete.

if 486ms starts at entry 13, but is still at 20, can I say that 20 is playing a part in the horrible delay?

If I run ping:

Reply from 206.53.60.7: bytes=32 time=483ms TTL=42
Reply from 206.53.60.7: bytes=32 time=482ms TTL=42

I get 500ms almost ping, it should be 100 normally. Upload of data is at 4.2K, it should be 40K, and the website host company is telling me they're pinging my website at 80ms and all is good, but it's not. (host is Velcom)
So can I say from the tracert that they are indeed slowing things down, them being the last in the chain at 20?


Thanks

In all honesty it is the very best way, at least if you are only
interested in finding official Cygwin packages.  There are of course
other repositories of non-official packages.

If you are using a recent snapshot you can also use "cygcheck -p
<query>" from the command line which queries the same list.

The "tracert" command is part of windows and should be on any PC.  While
not a Cygwin app it should work fine from within Cygwin.  Is there a
reason this will not work for your needs?

Alternatively, find the source tarballs of other implementations of the
the various traceroute utilities (e.g. lft, mtr) and see if they will
compile.  See for example
