Hello development folks,
for tracing back connections, we currently seem to have multiple utilities available in IPFire 2.x:
(a) tracepath, which comes as part of the iputils package
(b) traceroute, which can be installed as an add-on
(c) mtr, being available as an add-on as well
While none of these hurt, I would like to ask for opinions if we can/should drop one of them. Just
a minor issue, but having three tools around that basically do the same thing does not really seem to
be necessary to me. :-)
Thanks, and best regards,
Peter Müller
