I just made the code work. The reason is that the multicast applications should be put on the hosts not on the multicast router (FreeBSD router). I put mcastsender.c on a linux host and mcastreceiver.c on the Freebsd multicast router. That is why it does not work. I will also check the KAME code you gave me to learn something. I did search a lot and could not find code for IPv6. thanks again, fuhua ----- Original Message ----- From: "SUZUKI Shinsuke" To: Cc: ; Sent: Thursday, March 18, 2004 4:54 PM Subject: Re: Multicast IPv6, socket, > Hi, > > >>>>> On Thu, 18 Mar 2004 13:36:12 +0100 > >>>>> fuhuayin@hotmail.com("Fuhua Yin") said: > > > I am trying to work on IPv6 multicast.
