[streaming] Re: Configuring Multicast

[prasad]

Thanks for the reply.

I tried with this command and checked the route  table and I got the 
following information

> Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    
> Use Iface
> 192.168.4.0     *               255.255.255.0   U     0      0

Now I have one doubt , we should create one multicast IP address right...
    I tried with the following command
       ifconfig eth0 224.0.0.12 and getting this error
SIOCSIFADDR: Invalid argument .

can you please help me this problem....

Thanks in Advance
