Hi, I actually have obs on my company headquarters, where all my mates are delighted (in fact they started to bring more and more CDs to work where y compress them and put on the obs database, about 3100 songs!). We have several other branches that interconnect to the headquarter's LAN using VPN on some cases, and FR on others.
I would like the main obs server to be reachable from the other branches, but of course to maintain maximum bandwith savings (i.e. use multicast). I have researched a little, including that starmedia paper but so far I'm lost. I guess what I should aim to is to integrate my multicast stream into the internet (mbone?) and then make the other branches to join it. Wonder with all difficulties intermediate ISPs, etc, will this render this approach impossible? Another option would be tunnelling, but so far I have found only mrouted (which seems to be rather old) and very little *practical* information (tons of "school work", but little practical implementations). Hope someone can shed some light on this! thanks in advance, *****---(*)---**********************************************----------> Francisco J.
