G'day!
unfortunately IP multicasting doesn't work any more in pre2.0.7
CONFIG_IP_MULTICAST=3Dy
mrouted 3.8
-> can't enable Multicast routing in kernel: Protocol not available
it did work in <=3D1.3.99 :!?
strangely, ifconfig eth0 reports
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU 1500 Metric 1
ifconfig eth0
eth0 Link encap:10Mbps Ethernet HWaddr 00:C0:A8:40:29:B2
