    trace route

    this isnt a vb specific question but it does relate to a vb project im starting work on. can a tracert be performed between two specified locations. in other words from an ip other than the one the request is issued from. i want to be able to perform a trace route between two ip address's and neither of which are the one im using to send the request. if that makes any sense ?? - prob havent explained it that clearly

    Not that I know of. Traceroute needs to be able to send packets from one of the endpoints to the other endpoint. For that, it generally needs to be running on one endpoint.

    There may be some sort of traceroute server-type system but that would require one of the machines to be running it regardless.

    Yeah I would say that it is not possible without having some server app running on the machine you want to send the trace route from.
