Hi all,
My problem is the following...
Code:
dhcp246:/home/hasv # ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:02:3F:BD:17:58
inet addr:10.0.100.246 Bcast:10.0.255.255 Mask:255.255.0.0

eth0 has multicast available: but if another computer on the same network tries issuing "ping 224.0.0.1" it won't list my ip. Although i can receive those packets
Code:
dhcp246:/home/hasv # tcpdump -i eth0 ip multicast
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
listening on eth0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 96 bytes

18:21:01.392081 IP orange.isrnet > ALL-SYSTEMS.MCAST.NET: icmp 64: echo request seq 3
Does anyone know why is this happening? If so how to solve it? I want my computer to respond to the ping command.
Any help would be appreciated.
