Hi, my ISP is streaming some local concert using UDP multicasting. I followed the instructions on the site which described how to set VLC in order to view the stream, but it didn't work. I am behind a Linux router/firewall doing NAT. Using google, I quickly found out that the netfilter/conntrack code doesn't support NATing multicast traffic. I thought about bridging the internet facing interface (eth0) and (one of) the internal interfaces (the one my computer is plugged into). This way I could set my IP to be public and no routing/NAT would be done on the Linux box. The only problem is that the box has 2 more NICs in it and there are other people connected to those NICs that need to use that connection (hence need to be NATed).
Then I tried thinking about a DMZ-like solution where my box would be in the DMZ, but I can't see that working either because I only have one public IP assigned. Can anyone think of any other way for me to be able to view the stream?
