I have an application that wants to deliver the same data reliably to a bunch of locations at once, where "bunch" is large enough that using N ftp's at once is impractical. Are there any standard references to broadcast-oriented protocols? I assume this has been done before; getting acks back without collision storms should be non-trivial, so I'd rather not re-invent.
