Hi,
 
When I run 2 or more clients on the same
 machine, the first client application is receiving multicast messages but not
 the subsequent clients.

 I'm using the same, multicast address and port for all the clients as
 this is the default multicast ip, all the clients automatically register to
this
 ip and port number.
 
 For example,

 Client 1 - 224.0.0.2 : 14000
 Client 2 - 224.0.0.2 : 14000
 Client 3 - 224.0.0.2 : 14000

 I'm not sure whether we can do this,
 As this is the first time I'm working with IP address and Port numbers,
 I don't have muck knowledge in using them.

 What could be the problem. Kindly let me know.

Cheers,

Naveen.
