Re: downloading Windows media player for OS X Tiger to listen to Internet radio program

2005-10-05 Thread Eric Ayres

Hi,

I am a lurker and thought that I musht interject at this point.  I am  
a network engineer just an fyi. The UDP box is not your problem. UDP  
in layman's terms provides a connectionless, unreliable transport  
service and is generally used in one way communications that use  
broadcast or multicast IP datagrams.  These are usually associated  
with internet gaming as there is NO guarantee of the packet arriving  
to its destination.  Applications that use UDP must supply there own  
reliability mechanisms.  I hope this helps with your UDP question...


Regards,

Eric

Hi, I hit the download button on the Windows media player website.  
An icon with a program did not download. A document with code only  
downloaded.Do I need to turn off my firewall to receive the icon  
and program to unstuff an install?


 I'm new to OS X Tiger. In the Sharing Preference, I have Network  
Time checked; and, in the Advanced settings, I have marked Enable  
Stealth Mode and Enable FireWall Logging. I did not mark Block UDP  
Traffic. Not sure what that is.


 I'm looking a the the Firewall Log. Looks like there are many  
entries. Haven't had a chance to read the O'reilly book that goes  
with OS X Tiger yet.


 I'm wondering what UDP means and its significance. Any light  
someone can shed on all this would be helpful. There is a live  
radio program on the Internet I want to listen to but I need the  
windows media player, evidently.


Thanks.
Jocelyn
PS I have a new G4 iBook.

something or other any thoughts?
