cant get the responses with traceroute

Hello to everyone!

I was trying to use the traceroute from the university local net, but the only thing that I achived was a lot a stars instead of host names,as the icmp inreacheables messages doesn get to me as iunderstood.I tried to increase initial time to live as is indicated in the manual but it didnt changed anything. So could anyone explain what is happen and what is the problem.

Thanks a lot!

Is your firewall blocking ICMP? For traceroute to work you should at least allow ICMP TTL expired and ICMP echo response.
 
You also need UDP.

Code:

Thanks a lot for the answering.So as I undertood the problem is that the firewall doesnt let pass the icmp unreacheable packets?Is there way to solve it?In the man for example there is an -e option to ignore the firewall.but since i no have idea on how it all works i dont know what it really does.
 
traceroute uses UDP by default. Its not working most time i tried xD
You can force ICMP with -I : `traceroute -I medved.gov.ru`
 
I triyed all type of protocols without results.But which difference between them in this case? As I understand in the both cases the error message is send in icmp format,so it nothing changes.
 
Your isp can filter this udp so it differs) In icmp case its just a ping, so most of them permit it.
If icmp not works, i think your isp or you filter request or response
 
Install tcptraceoute instead. That will allow you to specific a port (like 80) and it will send TCP packets to each hop. Works through all firewalls/routers as the packets are just normal TCP packets.
 
Ok,I just installed tcptraceroute but I have now new problem,that I dont know how to launch the program =D I write [cmd=]tcptraceroute svr.gov.ru[/cmd] but the reponse is that
Code:
Command not found
could you please explane me better how to make it work?':r
