Finding out packet loss

[Log in to get rid of this advertisement]
What command can I use to find out my packet loss? At one point this was a huge problem for me in Windows.

As a secondary question, I would like to find out who is accessing my system (if anyone is) and what they are reading accessing. Yes, I'm paranoid.

Thanks.

traceroute / ping ?
Or you can take a look at "mtr", it is kind of a combination of ping and traceroute
