multicast issue

Hi, I just started looking at ECP. I tried the ncat example, but get the following on OSX:

connect to address 239.255.255.250: Address family not supported by protocol family

On my linux box, I get “network not reachable”.

Any idea how to get around this?

On linux, with wireshark running, I can see the Roku broadcasting every so often to address 239.255.255.250, so I find this puzzling.

Figured it out. I had to add the ‘–udp’ option to ncat on my system.
