try an icmp traceroute, if you are lucky you'll get a result that tells |
| 22 |
you on which hop the pings cease to work: |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
traceroute -I |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
but do read the man page (traceroute is like ps in that there are many |
| 27 |
versions around and options don't always match up with what folk say on |
| 28 |
mailing lists) |
