I checked out Oscar version 3.0 with RH 9.0 on a little
testcluster with consists of an Dell Poweredge 1300 and
the clientnodes are Dell Optiplex 270 (P4 2,8 GHz) and
Dell Precision 340 (P4 1,8 GHz)

Everthing works fine, install Oscar, build a client
image, configure dhcp options.

The clientnodes boot from PXE, get the IP and load the
image, check the hardware at this Point it is fine also.

But now a message like this is shown on the screen:

We have connectivity to the Image Server!

start_syslogd

using multicast...

get_flamethrower_directory

flamethrower_client(flamethrower_directory)
-----------------------------------------------------
udp-receiver --interfrace eth0 --portbase 9000
2>/tmp/udp-receiver.flamethrower_directory | tar -x -c
/var/lib/systemimager/flamethrower 2>/tmp/tar.stderr.log
......

4 hours and many many Points(.) later i cancelt this.

I try it serveral times and it is everytime the same.

Some people say thats the multicast problem with the
SIS so I post the Problem in this Mailing list.

I disabled the multicast option but their is no resolve.

i look in flamethrower.conf but the option multicast is
disable

where must i look to know that this option is disabled
or is this another problem?
