Av> How does trace work? I'll add the PING flag to 1/100

The trace function replies to messages addressed to ping that go through your node. It replies showing the kludge and via lines the same as a ping request.

If you send a ping to another node via your hub, your hub will send you a reply that says your message passed through your node and send the ping on toward it's destination.
