Hi all,

In the previous version of Lime (1.06), there was the option "-mcast" which is necessary to use Lime in a host that isn't connected to any host.
It seems this option has been removed from Lime? In this case, I'd like to know how can I use the new version of Lime (1.1) in a isolated machine?
Thank you.

  Yes, -mcast has been removed.
  
  You can still run Lime on a host with no intention to connect it to other hosts by using the -engage explicit flag, and never calling LimeServer.engage.
  
  However, Lime does expect a network connection to be available, and therefore you will not be able to start Lime on a host that is without a network.
  
  Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
