Support for wireless extensions and multicasting peers will just need

Hi Gianluca,
There's no a solution still, but it should be quite easy to find one.
The problem is that the Mach's glue doesn't handle at the moment the
multicast functionality.
Your solution should be then to hack the both Mach's device interface
and it's linux emula

Great!
promisc.patch is very well done, and shows exactly what I tried to
explain with my broken english to Richard. :-)

Hello,
I'm currently developing a packet filter, and I noticed that GNU Mach
doesn't catch Ethernet multicast packets (though broadcast packets are
correctly handled). I temporarily set mc_filter[0] and mc_filter[1] to
0x (as it is done for promiscuous mode) in driver rtl8139, and
then mul
