<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>What could be happening is that the bridge
server is listening to multicast on the network that does not have multicast
enabled.&nbsp; I am not sure how you would go about doing this, but you need
the unicast part of the bridge server to listen on one network card and the
multicast part to listen on the other network card.&nbsp; So far as I know, the
current bridge server (Quickbridge) only listens on one network card (which
this is I am uncertain).&nbsp; I expect that if you use the multicast card by
default, this might work.&nbsp; Otherwise, it will probably require a
modification of the source code of quickbridge to allow the choosing of a
different network card for the multicast and unicast sockets.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
