Re: Force TCP traceroute

Perhaps this is a job for Nping (https://nmap.org/nping/), which comes with
Nmap and is designed for special case low-level packet crafting like this.
Use a command like:

nping --tcp -p [portnum] --traceroute [host]

Nping will start with a TTL of 1 and increase it for each packet sent.  And
it shows you each packet sent and received so you know exactly what is
going on.

Cheers,
Fyodor

Thanks for your feedback Fyodor. Using Nping in this situation works for
me since it comes with Nmap's Windows installation. I'll definitely need
to have a closer look at it.

Every now and then I work on Windows and it is good to have a familiar
set of tools for troubleshooting around without installing a dozen of
software packages.

Regards,

Jochen
