I use Mac TCP Watcher, it is shareware and does Ping, Trace route and DNS Lookup love everyone til they prove otherwise, sadly some prove otherwise SO quickly
Another great program is whatroute. It is freeware and was at least at one point available on Apple's OS 9 cd if you did a custom install.
What's new in this version:
* PING Distribution Graph
* MultiPing - successively ping each hop in a trace
* LAN monitor - port of the Unix tcpdump command
* Address Scan - function for finding all active hosts on a network
* ICMP traceroute probes - maybe useful for getting out through a firewall.
Product Description:
Trace Internet Paths
PING Remote Hosts
DNS Query
Finger
Whois
TELNET Server
Best of luck,
PT
