Steve,

Kernel version is 2.6.11.4-430.10-bigsmp

Here is the igmp kernel configs.
================================
net.ipv4.conf.pci0.force_igmp_version = 0
net.ipv4.conf.eth5.force_igmp_version = 0
net.ipv4.conf.eth4.force_igmp_version = 0
net.ipv4.conf.eth3.force_igmp_version = 0
net.ipv4.conf.eth2.force_igmp_version = 0
net.ipv4.conf.eth1.force_igmp_version = 0
net.ipv4.conf.eth0.force_igmp_version = 0
net.ipv4.conf.lo.force_igmp_version = 0
net.ipv4.conf.default.force_igmp_version = 0
net.ipv4.conf.all.force_igmp_version = 0
net.ipv4.igmp_max_msf = 10
net.ipv4.igmp_max_memberships = 1

Its custom compiled, source is from SuSe Linux with some patches on top
of it.

Crossover cable should work just fine.

Which kernel are you using?  Is it custom compiled?

Make sure your kernel has IGMP multicast set in its kernel
configuration.
