Earlier today I asked about traceroute for SunOS; was it not part of
SunOS, where could I get it. I have so far received kind replies from:
John C. Hasley (hasley@bgsu.edu)
Ian MacPhedran (macphed@dvinci.usask.ca)
Fuat Baran (fuat@ans.net)
John came through first with:
>1). Traceroute comes from LBL (Van Jacobson), not Sun.
>2). If you're wondering how to find something (possibly) available for
>anonymous FTP, use Archie. The only site in Canada that I came up with
>is ... cs.dal.ca
Turns out that Dal (Dalhousie, in Halifax, N.S.) archives references to
software that come through comp.archives etc. The file in their
/pub/comp.archives/traceroute directory contained the announcement of
traceroute's availability on ftp.ee.lbl.gov. It's there, I got it,
and it works just fine thanks, without even the kernel hacks that
the source comments say may be necessary. (The same distribution
apparently works for Ultrix, too.)
Had I just waited for Fuat's note I could have saved Dal some cycles:
>Traceroute is available via anoymous ftp from ftp.ee.lbl.gov.
Thanks to all,
