[ILUG] Traceroute giving request timeout on Fedora Core3

[Anil Kamath]

Hi Cian,

thanks for your response I tried to ping earlier and it gives request time
out maybe the firewall has disabled ping the issue is it doesnt work even
with yahoo.com. The timeout doesnt occur on WinXp SP2. I had this issue
earlier on Fedora. I will try with the -w flag option.
Thanks again

Regards,
Anil
