[Mark Snelling]

In answer to your questions, all daemons are using Windows XP SP2. I've 
successfully got it working on our networks broadcast address. It seems to 
work with that multicast address if there are no other nodes specified in 
the segment. ie simply


Spread_Segment 239.0.1.3 {

      wcc014 192.168.147.54
}


Thanks,
Mark.

To the best of my knowledge, this problems is a new one.

It sounds to me like there may be a windows-specific bug or
incompatibility.  Can you fill in a bit more information about which
versions of Windows you're using?

The multicast address you're using appears valid, but can you try with
a different multicast address or with the correct broadcast address
for your network, to see if it's still a problem?

Cheers,
Ryan
