UDP Broadcast

Managers,

I have a 2-node ES40 Tru64 v5.1B cluster. We have installed Oracle 9iAS on the 2nd node - now here's the problem.

A small application that is required for the Reports Server to run communicates with an agent which runs on a windows 2k pc. Tjis is done via a UDP broadcast through port 14000.

I have been using tcpdump to monitor what is going on and have managed to find out that if we run the application from node-1 the server broadcasts through the correct port and receives a response JACK.4920 > 193.35.14.255.14000: udp 76

However if I run the same application from the 2nd node we get no broadcast or response?????

I initially thought it might be something to do with the selp in the cluster but eliminated that one (I think)

Can anyone help me on this one?

Regards

Andrew
