I have a BRIDGEd configuration on my main LAN. The server pushes the
"redirect gateway" option to the client. (Both server and client are
winXP-SP2 boxes with firewall OFF)
On the main LAN there is a box MULTICASTing to the 239.255.20.1:50001
group.
Any box on the LAN is able to join that group and properly receive the
streamed data. If my client is physically connected to the LAN - it too is
able to receive that stream.
But if my client is connected via OpenVPN - no data gets in.
The same time all other IP and Ethernet connectivity works as expected -
HTTP[S], POP3|SMTP and NetBEUI - all I use for my everyday work - operate
as they should.
What may be the cause of this misfeature?
Tony.
