I'm getting into a networking/hardware area of which I know nothing :-)

I'm setting up this Network Registry stuff and auto-detection of remote servers 
(using the MulticastDetector).

The thing I am questioning is - is there anything special from an OS or router 
perspective that I have to configure to enable multicasting?

I have a Netgear WGR614 wireless router and the only setting I see related to 
multicast is "RIP Direction" and "RIP Version".  RIP Version of RIP_2B seems to 
relate to enabling multicast but I have no idea if I actually have to enable 
that?  RIP Direction can be "in only", "out only" or "both" - is that something 
to do with packets going from router-to-router and thus I don't care?? (I have 
only a single router in my network - internet pipe from cable modem goes 
directly into it).

I don't know of anything on the OS side (using Windows XP) that enables or 
disables or configures multicasting.

Its hard for me to figure out how to even test to make sure this registry and 
detection stuff is either working or not - I plan on getting another computer 
on my network with my stuff installed, but right now I was hoping I could run 
two JBossAS servers each with a different bind address (I can go through my 
wireless or wired interface I supposed - since they have different IP 
addresses).

Any tips/tricks would be appreciated.
