Thanks Andreas, I initially tried using two different systems, one with the client and one with two servers. When that didn't work I went to a single system. I figured that any network access, including multicast, would get looped back and be transparent, even if on the same machine. I've had the same results regardless of the configuration. :-(

This doesn't work with multicast also makes not much sense. To do multicast you need several computers in a network. Andreas > Has anyone had recent experience using multicast with a cluster?
