Title: RE: [Ethereal-users] Multicast Testing tool?

It is very simple in Java, just create a multicast datagram socket and do a join group.

Should be just as easy in C, but I don't know how.

Subject: [Ethereal-users] Multicast Testing tool?


I know this isn't 100% ethereal related, but I am using ethereal to watch
for the UDP multicast stream... and you people seem just so bright after
all.

Does anyone have a linux or solaris tool/code/binary I can use to send out a
subscription to a particular multicast ip address and port?

I found some C code written by a kid about 6 months ago when I put this
setup together, and I can't find it after I rewrote it to save the life of
me.  Our multicast subscription code stopped working last week, but the
developpers are doing a major overhaul.

I'd like to see if its still working at a very basic level, so I can tell
them to leave my poor network alone :)

Thanks,
Ronald Prague
