I haven't tried. I usually use trace route in windows but Ill give it a go tomorrow. Always love a challenge. What kind of compile errors if any did you get?
Has anyone got Paratrace to work in BT2?

It comes compiled in BT2.... but I'm not sure if I hosed the libraries it needs by upgrading some of the packages in BT; I'll have to try a fresh ISO to see if it works out of the box.
I'm getting a ton of nasty errors. The package from Paketto includes a readme that mentions a backwards compatibility issue with libnet 1.1.1 > and that 1.0.2 has to be used, so tomorrow I may install / symlink the older libnet and see where that gets me.
I've been itching to try paratrace out ever since I read about it in a new book I have. The source gzip comes with another cool tool (that I haven't been able to get to work outside of my subnet) called scanrand, which supposively has been noted in scanning an entire class B network (65K+ hosts) for web servers with 8000 hits in 4 seconds (achieves this by firing off syn packets making no effort to retain session state).
I'm too beat to attempt to get it compiled tonight; tomorrow is another day to play![]()

I cant seem to get scanrad to work on the out side either. the command completes but with no type of output. I got paratrace to work though. It was weird though I issued the command and it hung forever but then I opened a new shell and pinged google and then I got the out put.......

I of course changed a few numbers to protect the innocent.
This makes sense based on the description of the tool:I got paratrace to work though. It was weird though I issued the command and it hung forever but then I opened a new shell and pinged google and then I got the out put.......Unless the traffic is originating from you or you were dual homed and it was flowing 'through' you I don't see how you could "attach" to it.Paratrace traces the path between a client and a server, much like "traceroute", but with a major twist: Rather than iterate the TTLs of UDP, ICMP, or even TCP SYN packets, paratrace attaches itself to an existing, stateful-firewall-approved TCP flow, statelessly releasing as many TCP Keepalive messages as the software estimates the remote host is hop-distant. The resultant ICMP Time Exceeded replies are analyzed, with their original hopcount "tattooed" in the IPID field copied into the returned packets by so many helpful routers. Through this process, paratrace can trace a route without modulating a single byte of TCP/Layer 4, and thus delivers fully valid (if occasionally redundant) segments at Layer 4 -- segments generated by another process entirely.
I'm a compulsive post editor, you might wanna wait until my post has been online for 5-10 mins before quoting it as it will likely change.
I know I seem harsh in some of my replies. SORRY! But if you're doing something illegal or posting something that seems to be obvious BS I'm going to call you on it.
after reading up and seeing this tool in action it seems far more powerful in mapping external and internal networks...I just don't know how to use it! haha
it seems to work in BT2, but it sits waiting to detect attachable TCP connection..
hopefully i'll figure this badboy out!
**scanrand and paratrace seem to hang, i wonder if its a BT2 issue or me, anyone confirm?
Has anyone managed to get this working?
I've been trying to get it working on BT3 beta but I just get errors trying to install.
