I would like to run CAP (with native phase 2 ethertalk) on an Intel box.
I played with it on FreeBSD 1.1.5 today and discovered that while
phase 1 works phase 2 does not. I can compile CAP for phase 2, but when
I run it it complains about Multicast not working. Comments in the
CAP source imply that CAP needs multicast for phase 2.
I really don't understand why appletalk would require multicast, but
I don't understand the issues and am willing to accept it. Does the
multicast code in either NetBSD or FreeBSD work? Or, more to the point,
has anyone got CAP and phase 2 running on Net- or Free-? (Or, for that
matter, Linux.)
