multicasting is not working on RHEL5


hi friends,

I was able to achieve multicast transmission and reception on RHEL4 (Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4) but the same thing i am not able to do it on RHEL5. I have followed all the procedures that are required at the OS level as well as at API level. but i am not able to get multicasted packets on RHEL5 system.
What changes do I have to make in RHEL5... pls suggest your ideas. bye

Kumara Swamy.

sounds like you don't know where to start looking

this is what I would do:

1) verify that the multicast datagrams are reaching the system. use tcpdump, tshark, wireshark, etc.
2) verify that the mcast application is listening correctly with 'netstat -anup' (run as root when using '-p' flag)
3) check firewall settings
