I run a computer refurbishing operation for a local non-profit I am a part of. I have been looking into using Clonezilla to do network-based image-restoration. I am very interested in the multicast functionality provided by Clonezilla.

I want to do multiple multicast restorations at the same time, but Clonezilla does not currently support that. It uses udpcast (udp-sender/udp-receiver) as its multicast server.

Current it uses a hard-coded IP and port for the multicast server (and client), and I believe that is the only limiting factor to performing multiple multicast restorations simultaneously.

Here is part of the command that is run (with the relevant parameters): `udp-sender --interface eth3 --nokbd --mcast-all-addr 241.0.0.1 --portbase 3034` (found in `/opt/drbl/sbin/ocs-functions`)

Is my diagnosis of the situation correct? is a different port all that is needed?

Thanks,  

Brian
