What part of "trace" "route" do you not understand?  If you are  
talking to your own subnet, there are no routers in between, so  
clearly there is nothing to trace.  A packet with TTL 0 is invalid,  
and a packet with TTL 1 will get to the host.

Cheers,

Somone asked me why I work on this free (http://www.fsf.org/ 
philosophy/) software stuff and not get a real job. Charles Schulz  
had the best answer:

"Why do musicians compose symphonies and poets write poems? They do  
it because life wouldn't have any meaning for them if they didn't.  
That's why I draw cartoons. It's my life."
