Ask network admin 1st then post here again the firewall might be configured to drop the traceroute packets for this host only unless this host has some modification on it's TCP/IP stack.

ping/traceroute setuid programs

How can I find which NIC is used to talk to a given host (except traceroute)

Hi all, I'm having some trouble identifying what route is being used to talk to a target host. I can figure it out by looking at the routing tables but I want to automate this and don't much feel like scripting the network mask logic when I'd think there'd be a way to have the OS do it for me....

NAME
arpspoof - intercept packets on a switched LAN SYNOPSIS
arpspoof [-i interface] [-c own|host|both] [-t target] [-r] host DESCRIPTION
arpspoof redirects packets from a target host (or all hosts) on the LAN intended for another host on the LAN by forging ARP replies. This is an extremely effective way of sniffing traffic on a switch. Kernel IP forwarding (or a userland program which accomplishes the same, e.g. fragrouter(8)) must be turned on ahead of time. OPTIONS
-i interface Specify the interface to use. -c own|host|both Specify which hardware address t use when restoring the arp configuration; while cleaning up, packets can be send with the own address as well as with the address of the host. Sending packets with a fake hw address can disrupt connectivity with certain switch/ap/bridge configurations, however it works more reliably than using the own address, which is the default way arpspoof cleans up afterwards. -t target Specify a particular host to ARP poison (if not specified, all hosts on the LAN). Repeat to specify multiple hosts. -r Poison both hosts (host and target) to capture traffic in both directions. (only valid in conjuntion with -t) host Specify the host you wish to intercept packets for (usually the local gateway). SEE ALSO
dsniff(8), fragrouter(8) AUTHOR
