Do you know of a program for > linux that does what I am trying to do? "traceroute" is the Linux equivalent of "tracert". It will trace a route to a given IP, and note all the IP's along the way. It doesn't let you measure traffic from your box that flows through a given IP, though, and doesn't assure that your traffic actually follows that exact route. j
