=head1 traceroute.cgi

This script uses L<traceroute> to find the path from the remstats host to 
some other specified host.  It's intended to be called off a host's
toolbar, but that's not required. For example, you could trace the path from
here (trevelyan.sourceworks.com) to ftp.uu.net with a URL like:

	L<@@HTMLURL@@/traceroute.cgi?host=ftp.uu.net|/traceroute.cgi?host=ftp.uu.net>

There are other options that you can specify:

=over 4

=item C<no_names> - just shows IP numbers instead of looking up the domain-names

=item C<ASNs> - look up the Autonomous System Numbers (ASNs) for the IP number of each hop.  It
can be useful for figuring out which networks you are traversing.

=item C<owners> - look up the "owner" via SOA records

=item C<fast> - continues on to the next hop as soon as the current one answers

=back 4
