Update: tcpdump
shows only ARP traffic with nc
generating ARP traffic who has 192.168.254 tell 192.168.1.64
but tracepath
says tell Fedora who has 192.168.1.5. 192.168.1.5 is pingable but 264 is not. Fedora is the host where I am doing the ping
.
I have put a Fedora 39 and a Bitnami PostgreSQL 15 (15.5.0-r3) on Debian 11 on an internet.
traceroute -T
, tracepath
and ping
will find the PostgreSQL host but nc
won't eg:
Ncat: no route to host.
So what gives?
Note: All but ping
will have -p 1531
appended after the address. Yes the port number is 5432
. Man page says nc
defaults to TCP.
