My network connection appears fine, I can access Mail, News, Web etc. = Pings also work fine. However whenever I try to traceroute, anything beyond the initial hop = (my router) is not returning I just get:- 2 * * * 3 * * * 4 * * * 5 * * * etc 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. 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:- ipfw: getsockopt (IP_FW_GET): Protocol not available Next I tried flushing any firewall rules, says "yes" I was sure, but I = got the same error as above. Can anyone shed some light onto the problem and a possible solution, = cheers. Lee. ------=_NextPart_000_0140_01C21A1D.FAEB65E0 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META http-equiv=3DContent-Type content=3D"text/html; = charset=3Diso-8859-1"> <META content=3D"MSHTML 6.00.2716.2200" name=3DGENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=3D#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>Hi All,</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>Perhaps someone can help me once again = with a=20 little annoyance.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>My network connection appears = fine, I can=20 access Mail, News, Web etc. Pings also work fine.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>However whenever I try to traceroute, = anything=20 beyond the initial hop (my router) is not returning I just = get:-</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>2 * = * *</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>3 * = * *</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>4 * = * *</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>5 * = * * etc</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>I though I may be my router, but the = other 3=20 computers on my network (a RedHat 7.3 / Windows 98, Windows = Me &=20 a WIndows 2K laptop) Work fine.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>So then I though ok perhaps it is the = default=20 firewall on the FreeBSD 4.6 installation.
