I am on a NetBSD machine. What did you want from ifconfig? I am guessing "ifconfig -a".
yep. just trying to learn whence the trace originated. this was supposed to be fixed. apologies. also the ! in the mail test is reversed. also was supposed to have been fixed. and heas had a good sendmail direct hack that got missed from the review set. <sigh> and yes, there are problems on old bsds, some fedoras, ... with the -I on the traceroute. but, in tests, udp traceroute gave much worse results despite icmp trace theoretically not working as vern points out that rfc 792 (4th paragraph of intro) says The ICMP messages typically report errors in the processing of datagrams. To avoid the infinite regress of messages about messages etc., no ICMP messages are sent about ICMP messages. but, my deep apologies for not personally testing that the test folk's corrections were made before sending. grrrr randy
