Hello,

I am at the moment playing with multicast and want to run mrouted. But
this one just gives me:

quaak# mrouted -d
debug level 2
04:44:18.268 mrouted version 3.5
04:44:18.486 can't enable Multicast routing in kernel: Operation not supported

From what I read in the kernel sources this should only occur when the socket
in question in neither a RAW_SOCKET, nor has IGMP as protocol, but which
should be the case from what I see in mroute's code ..

Any hints?

Even If I already looked at the kernel config I didn't see it ...

I need ``options MROUTING'' in the kernel config.

It could also mean that you didn't build the kernel with "options MROUTING".
