Dear RIck,
YES!
Gmond reported this
# /usr/sbin/gmond -d 10
udp_recv_channel mcast_join=239.2.11.71 mcast_if=NULL port=8649 bind=
239.2.11.71
Error creating multicast server mcast_join=239.2.11.71 port=8649
mcast_if=NULL family='inet4'. Exiting.
The ethernet card IS allowing multicast as is the switch;
[root] ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0F:1F:65:9D:85
inet addr:192.168.5.125 Bcast:192.168.5.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
(...)
So I did the usual trick and set the multicast routing explicitly:
route add -host 239.2.11.71 dev eth0
And it joined and added itself to the Cluster Ganglia reports.
Thanks!
Tom

Start up gmond manually (not through any init script) and give it the "-d
10"
flag. This will force gmond to stay in the foreground and print out error
messages to the screen.
