[comp.protocols.tcp-ip] Accessing Ethernet multicast in Unix.

brad@sics.se (Brad Smith) (07/04/90)

I am working with some people who are doing some work where they
would like to use Ethernet multicasts from Unix (SunOS 4.x in
particular).  How does one go about doing this.  Some things I've
read seem to indicate that the ethernet drivers need to be modified
to support multicasting... is this true, and if so is their such a
modified driver available?

Thanks in advance,
