> The usage of java.net.MulticastSocket is one of the areas where the JDK does a poor job of abstracting away the underlying OS. Patterns of MulticastSocket construction that work well on BSD-based OSs don't work on Windows and vice versa. SocketBinding.createMulticastSocket() should adapt the code used in JGroups for dealing with this.
