reverse Traceroute
I just played with this reverse traceroute tool from www.traceloop.com and it looks cool. It's kind of a cross between an automated lookingglass system and napster. Anyway, they are just starting their alpha testing and they need more test points. btw, I have no affiliation, just thought it was cool... Paul Bergman Network Engineer Rhythms NetConnections, Inc.
Just checked this out - very cool (although i think the web interface could use a little bit of a rework).... traceroute from anywhere (at least anywhere a client is running) to anywhere... very useful (and moreso as more clients come on line). I would like to urge everyone to check this out --- that way i can test my network more effectively:):) Thanks, jason On Thu, 22 Feb 2001, pbergman@rhythms.net wrote:

Correct me if I'm wrong, by all means, but isn't that subset extremely large, and includes Israel? I thought the US was only prohibiting export now to a handful of countries.
Hmm, but it looks like it's a commercial type service. What a bummer. Seems like such a good idea for everyone, not just for the people who can pay. If it was GPL software, they'd have 2 new clients in far corners of the globe, but as it's not.... Oh well. Matthew Devney On Fri, 23 Feb 2001, Jason Blakey wrote:

Actually, from what their page says, you only have to pay if you want the functionality of tracing from network x to network y (neither of which are yours). AFAIK you can trace to your network from anywhere else without having to pay, provided you run an agent to service others. -c
