Lines: 16 Distribution: comp Message-ID: <ALBRIGHT.95May22093650@greatdane.cisco.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: greatdane.cisco.com I tried bringing up a few multicast applications but failed. I ran vat and sd and they both complained that they couldn't assign requested address. This sounds like the kernel I have doesn't support multicasting. I am running the March 22nd snap. I have included options MROUTING # Multicast routing in my kernel config file. But, this appears to be only multicast forwarding. How do I get multicasting host support? On a similar note, I (obviously) pulled over vat and some of the readme files said vat runs under FreeBSD if I use the linux vat driver. Do I need that? If so, where do I get it? -thanks. -bob
