Description : The alternative traceroute tool for network (reverse) engineers
FFT is a sort of 'traceroute' that often works much faster (than the
commonly-used Van Jacobson method) and goes through many configurations
of packet-filter based firewalls. It also has numerous other options
including AS number lookups, netblock name lookups, et al.
Rather than launching UDP probes in an attempt to elicit ICMP
TIME_EXCEEDED, FFT accomplishes substantively the same effect using TCP
SYN or FIN probes, listening for both TIME_EXCEEDED messages or TCP_RST
from firewalls or other gateways in the path.
FFT performs a function similar to that of the tcptraceroute package but
has different features. The output is quite different from traceroute
but has abilities which tcptraceroute lacks.

Hello,
This is an automatic mail sent to close the RFP you have reported or
are involved with.
Your RFP wnpp bug is being closed because of the following reasons:
- It is, as of today, older than 600 days.
- It haven't had any activity recently.
- The amount of ITPs on the Debian BTS is huge and we need to
clean up a bit the place.
As this an automatic procedure, it could of course have something
wrong and probably it would be closing some bugs that are not
intended by owners and submitters (like you) to be closed, for
example if the RFP is still of your interest, or there has been
some kind of activity around it. In that case, please reopen the
bug, do it, DO IT NOW! (I don't want to be blamed because of
mass closing and not let people know that they can easily reopen
their bugs ;-).
To re-open it, you simply have to mail control@bugs.debian.org
with a body text like this:
reopen 123456
thanks bts
Replacing '123456' for the number of your RFP bug. The subject of the
mail is ignored. Or if you have any kind of problems when dealing with
the BTS, feel free to contact me and I'd be more than happy to help
you on this: <damog@debian.org>.
This is the first mass wnpp closing that will be done. The next close
will be done on inactive RFPs older than 450 days and finally, the
ones older than 365 days (an automatic script will close *inactive*
RFPs when they reach one year old).
A similar process is being applied to the ITP wnpp bugs in these
days.
Thanks for your cooperation,
-- David Moreno Garza <damog@debian.org> Wed, 14 Sep 2005 21:54:42 -0500
