I have a question, If I go into town and try to trace route back to my computer, can I get a computer inside my network to respond to the trace. From what i understand, when i run and trace using icmp the last hop i can trace is the gateway. I also read that icmp isnt set to a port, so i cant port foward the icmp request to a computer in the network? Could i use tcp trace and forward a tcp port to my computer and get it to respond? Thanks for any help, T.J.
