Simple example of UDP packet program in c/c++ under Linux

[lilboy716]

i have written a multicast program which:

-it build a network topology with a specific text file
-allow nodes to join to/prune from multicast group
-allow only multicast group members receive multicast packets from the multicast root

compiles/tested under linux

it worked with my test cases.

email me... and i'll provide the code and specs

I just brought this program over to MSWindows and it works perfectly.

I have no idea why this does not work under linux. Often this kind of problem has to do with security issues or wrong routing tables, but everthing looks ok...

I figured it out

Had to add an obscure class D (multicast) IP route to go through eth1 to the routing table.

paaaaaaaaaaaahty Amazing what a good night sleep and a long walk can do.

Thanks to all that helped.
