multicast works fine with OpenSG. Most problems came form wrong configured networks. Some problems are: try to set OSG_LOGLEVEL to debug and run clients and servers.

I'm not sure if it is still usable. I wouldn't use it. Marcus ------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
