Hello Tobi - mv /usr/sbin/traceroute /usr/bin chmod u+s /usr/bin/traceroute
Confirmed that wwwrun can run traceroute now: server:~ # sudo -u wwwrun traceroute -I eth0 www.yahoo.com traceroute to www.yahoo.com (209.191.93.52), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets . . But I still get the bad packet length value problem. Bummer! Anyone have any other ideas?
