[NTLUG:Discuss] MS Windows vs. Linux Trace Route

[Dennis Rice]

At the school that I am now teaching Linux at has a situation that I 
have not seen before.

Using a M$ Windows system I am able to perform a tracert from the 
command line in the lab.  When I use the Linux (Fedora 12) system, 
traceroute does not work beyond the internal routers, but mtr does.  I 
typically do a tracert to yahoo.com.

Anyone have thoughts on why?
