Capturing Unix Traceroute data

Hi guys,

I need a way to capture the host on the next-to-last hop in a traceroute output.

The last output is the destination but I need to capture the router just before the last hop.

I can do this in perl but I'm not so sure about Shell...

I'm on AIX 5.3 using ksh

any ideas?

Thanks,
Mike

You can call perl a script from shell.

Remember horses for courses, shell can call any other program.
