[AG-TECH] muticast linux

[Rene Salmon]

Hi list,

Just wanted to get some pointers on getting multicast going on a Linux 
box.  The output to ifconfig shows that multicast is enabled:

eth0
           UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
           RX packets:509061 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
           TX packets:130593 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
           collisions:0 txqueuelen:100
           RX bytes:53750957 (51.2 Mb)  TX bytes:95713398 (91.2 Mb)
           Base address:0xdcc0 Memory:dfee0000-dff00000


Is there anything else I need to do to get this working on linux? I know 
my switch and network have multicast enabled I tested this already from 
a different box running windows that is plugged into the same switch as 
the linux box.

Thanks for any help on this.
Rene
