Hi, I want to start playing with multicast and after trawling round the net am still a bit confused. On FreeBSD do I need to recompile the kernel with mrouted in order to activate multicast capability, or is mrouted "just" used for routing multicast packets? I intend to start small and work up, so I have 3 machines connected to a hub. I want to multicast stream some video (Mpeg) from one and have the other two pick it up. How do I do this? How do I setup the group for the server to stream to and how do I get the clients to join the group? Finally I've been looking at VideoLan as the app. for streaming the video. Has anyone managed to get the server to run under Linux emulation? Or have a native alternative? many thanks Gavin __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
