title: Why java multicast receiver not able to receive packets on Windows XP?
body: <p>I have a MulticastReceiver and MulticastSender in java on ip 224.2.2.3 and port 8888. When I run receiver on windows XP, I am not able to receive the packets. All my linux receivers are receiving the packets as expected. Things are also fine, when my sender is on windows.</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>I have turned off firewall on XP.</li>
  <li>I have bound the interface to my socket on which I expect to arrive the packet.</li>
  <li>I have all the machine on same network.</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Is there anything else that needs tweaking?</p>
