1. IP multicast: IP_MULTICAST_TTL option

I have been experimenting with IP multicasts.  I got them working between
hosts on the same subnet so I tried getting them to work between subnets.
I use the program below to send a message.  Whenever I run it, I get
the following error message:

setsockopt IP_MULTICAST_TTL: Option not supported by protocol

What is going wrong?

(I think I have multicast routing turned on in our Cisco routers,
but I have not gotten far enough so that makes any difference.)

Environment:  Solaris 2.4 from the 11-94 CD with no patches installed
    various Sparcs (SS1, IPC, SS5)
