I have linux box red hat 8.0 in 209.151.137.73, it acts a router.
it works for 209.151.137.74-78, the funny things, there is not any
problem to access 78, but 74 is not accessable.

the following is the trace report. I called the company for
janefinch-core.ica.net , he said that is good for his router.
so how can I verify if my linux box is ok?

Those look a little dodgy to me. The first thing worth noting is that
the traceroute to 209.151.137.78 does not, in fact, go by
209.151.137.73, unless something funky is happening.

The double .78 at the end of your second traceroute looks a little
dodgy, too - I'm certain it means *something*, but I don't know what.

I'd like to take a look at the routing tables for 209.151.129.250 and
..204. And possibly .78.

Do you allow tracerouting? If not, that might explain the 'timed out'
messages in your first traceroute.

Running tcpdump on .73 and .78 may be interesting; it will at least
allow you to see if anything happens on the wire.

Why such an obsolete distribution? RH8.0 was end-of-lifed at Red Hat on
31 December 2003, and support at fedoralegacy.org ended in September 2004.

Look at the forwarding rules on .73, and the firewall rules on .74

Is the Linux box offering services to the Internet? Try connecting to
that service. If not offering services, why is it connected?

That looks like the b0rken microsoft TRACERT program, which only uses
ICMP echos. The original 'traceroute' uses UDP packets to ports in the
33434 and above range. Different protocols - different results. None of
them relate to what you might see with TCP.

The host beyond janefinch-core.ica.net is blocking ICMP Type 3, or not
forwarding properly.

If that's not a typo, there is something screwy with the networking setup
on 209.151.137.78 - possibly a strange firewall rule. If that is RH8.0,
there was a "user friendly" P.O.S called 'lokkit' that was used to work
with the firewall. Or, you could just use '/sbin/iptables -L' to see what
rules are in place.
