Sorry for offtopic

Before that, a couple of things that are required to make ti work in centos and the NEW DATABASE from Marc
**1
On line 197: it should be my($val)=((($a[0]*256+$a[1])*256+$a[2])*256); and not my($val)=($a[0]*256+$a[1])*256+$a[2]; { thats for the old DB }
**2

-e will not work for people using 1.10.. so this should do
my $cmd=qq{traceroute -w $maxwait -q $probes -I $dest};

**3 For those running centos 5&perl 5.8.8
Direct install of ( Net::Traceroute; ) when done with perl -MCPAN -e shell is broken. There is a default option make test no that stops the install. Would suggest the following ( pull it directly from HA website)

->
wget http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-module/Net/HAG/Net-Traceroute-1.10.tar.gz
–15:03:02– http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-module/Net/HAG/Net-Traceroute-1.10.tar.gz

->gunzip make
->make test

No output from traceroute. Exec failure? at blib/lib/Net/Traceroute.pm line 300.
make: *** [test_dynamic] Error 2
->make install

I noticed for a number of hosts that we always got the same latitude/longitude smack in the middle of the US. I assume, those are ones that don’t have a good location information. When I see that specific lat/long I simply skip it and look at the next hop. The traceroute timing info is displayed next to the hop.

sample code pleaaaasee .

How did you force it to skip hosts that were not mapped. Like if it was part of the route , does the map automatically move to the next one and add the total wait time . I think traceroute sums the time automatically, but curios if you are pulling that data directly.

Kevin, the discrepancy could be from the Ip2Loc database. Marc uploaded a new one on April and that has improved accuracy overall.

It will be nice to have auto animate as default. Like when you open the kml it automatically starts tracking. I tried to hack it by calling a js inside kml, but google earth doesnt like it.
It so doesnt like it that it crashed my comp. Thrice

Cheers,
Haarith
