RE: Firewalking query

Dear Clement & Group,

I think I haven't made myself clear. There is a third
IP address which is a Firewall (probably Cisco PIX,
from current results) that need to be assessed apart
from the PT on 2 web servers. 

Now one of the servers is behind this firewall and
other I'm not able to make out the location. 

On of the points that I want to express to the client
is that their firewall is a single point of failure.
If the firewall is compromised/DoS/Crashed their one
of the webserver will also not be available. The same
I cannot say for the second webserver whose details
I'm not able to trace. 

The second webserver I'm not able to firewalk or
traceroute using source/destination port 80/tcp, icmp,
53/tcp/udp, 161/udp, 69/tcp.

It would be great if i can find out the location of
second webserver.

thnks bshan
