Dear All,
I implemented an UDP Multicast socket connection with boost. It works 
fine if I test server and client on the same PC (windows Xp or 7) but If 
server and client are (normally) on different PCs and at least on the 
client side there are virtual network cards active, the client does not 
receve udp data. It seems the udp connection uses one of the virtual 
cards and in that case it doesn't work. In fact If I deactivate all 
virtual cards then it starts working.
Can you explain me please what's going on?

Regards
Gianni
