I've ported traceroute for a commercial version of a TCP/IP stack (available
soon). I haven't seen a port for AmiTCP (which doesn't mean one doesn't
exist). It won't work on the regular AS225r2 beta that was available to C=
developers (that doesn't have the van Jacobsen raw TCP patch required).

It isn't fiction.

Generally, I'd use "ping".
