I'm not very good at multicast routing, since I don't understand mrouted 
and the network setup that well.  If there is a Cisco router between the 
two of you, you may be able to convince your network admins to switch on 
multicast on it, so it'll work without further modification.  Otherwise 
you may have to build a tunnel.  I would suggest consulting your network 
admins before building any tunnels, though.
