Actually just plain multicast on a single subnet should just work with
all of the kernels that are provided but the various distributions.
Only time a multicast route daemon is needed is when the multicast traffic
has to be routed between seperate networks. I'm guessing that Mr. Becker's
cluster is all on one subnet.
I would bet it's much more likely he has some unusual issues with his
network hardware in the cluster.
