Bonjour,

4) Yes exactly !!!

1) Hum! it seems that "in fine" TTL is only set to 16 ? (see capture)
and according to this Tutorial,
http://ntrg.cs.tcd.ie/undergrad/4ba2/multicast/antony/  it is normal
that we are restricted to "our site"

This might be the solution, we just have to find how 127 becomes 16.... ?

2) Yes of course. We use UBUNTU boxes that we installed  ourselves so we
know what's inside I just checked for a "strange rule" in  our site
firewall...

3)  If I start VPCscreen  and a Video producer service I have the same
addres/port (and TTL)

/usr/bin/VPCScreenCapture  ......  -t 127 224.2.141.24/61520
vic  ...........-t 127 224.2.141.24/61520
