using async and pointopoint options together

Hi All, Does udpcast currently allow using async and pointopoint options together ? That is, I want to specify the unicast address of the participant manually from the command line. I noticed that the same question was raised in last January, 2009, and the answer was "not -yet- supported": http://udpcast.linux.lu/pipermail/udpcast/2009-January/000956.html Thanks.

There's no option to choose the forcedeth module on the current cast-o-matic web site; is that intentional? I did find it in the .deb package containting the 2.6.30 pre-compiled kernel and modules. -Tom C.

how to by-pass HELLO message mechanism through -m option ?
by Selçuk Cevher 01 Sep '09

Hi All, I want to use udpcast in unicast (or pointopoint) mode. However, I do not want udp-sender to determine whether to use unicast or multicast based on the number of connections coming from the clients since I want to test udp-sender along with another application on the receiving side other than udp-receiver (In this framework, there won't be any connections coming from the clients). Based on above, I want udp-sender to use the unicast destination IP address provided by the user from the command line or it may be even hard-coded into the source code. I tried to use -m option to specify a unicast address instead of a multicast address to "trick" udpcast. But, it did not like that. I guess that it got some kind of negative feedback from the existing udp-receiver clients, and aborted the transfer since the clients were expecting a "proper" multicast address after -m option. Any ideas to overcome this issue ? Thanks.
