    IP trace help plz.....

    I have an annoying troll constantly playing with me. He claims he's not who I think he is (ex-boyfriend with grudge problem) but I am dead positive it's him. he told me to trace his ip. So......how would I go about doing that?

    Do you mean you want to figure out which ip he's using, or do you want to see the route his datagrams follow to get to your computer?

    Figuring out his IP shouldn't be to hard: each time you have a direct connection to him, you should be able to figure out his ip. To show a list of all active connections with IP-adresses (in Windows), open a dos-box (command shell, dos shell, whatever it's called) and type "netstat -a" (without double quotes). You'll get the entire list, so you have to figure out yourself which one is him.

    Figuring out the route the datagrams follow is more ease: for windows: open a dos-box (command prompt) and type: tracert <ip>
    You'll get the ip and dns of each hop that datagrams follow to get from your computer to his. There are numberous applications that draw this information on a graphical map: VisualRoute is one.

    Most of the time, just ignoring the person has a more desirable effect... Good luck.

    If you just so happen to be using *N*X the commands are basically the same.
    Being as IP was developed on BSD...major difference spell out tracert>>traceroute
    netstat -a is same. If you want more info on man <command>
    i.e.
    man traceroute
    I'm sure this is pointless as your are almost certainly using windoze

    Yeah gus gave the best advice I could think of. . .the link he gave for the VisTrace'd probably be good if you don't dig on the dos windows. . .NeoTrace is another that's purty kewl if you like pretty graphics and point and clicky stuff, but I think they might not have a demo anymore.

    lol, nice one blunt,
    anyway. what i would recomend is to get urseft a firewall proggie, like blackice($$££) or free zone alarm, when he next attackes you the prog will say(example) incoming scan from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (which is his ip address) then do a IP to Dns conversionm using a program or website. when u get the DNS, do a WHOIS, uf uve got windows u can do this on the net! he whois site can either be whois.internic.net or arin, if u can find a program called Sam Spade (1.1) which can search through DNS`s. anyway once youve done that u get ur results u should get the ISP he connects through, then do a DNS querie on that. you should get the companys address, email adressses of the webmaster/admin or even Aduse@isp. from there report the ip address that attacked you, when, using what meathod and how ofen. let them deal with it. if this failes u can run a scanner on the ip address gather his network name/netbios u know enumerate and report his Netbios/ Mac address to teh admins.
