I am looking for an x86 Unix implementation that supports IP multicast.
I would like to be able to run MBONE applications (nv, vat, sd, wb).
I know that SunSoft's Solaris 2.4 supports multicast, but I was 
wondering if any of the freeware implementations (Linux, FreeBSD, 
NetBSD) supported multicast, and how well.
