networking question

Hey all,

I have got a strange bug(?) while testing the multicasting server and client.

I have done only the INADDR_ANY bind in server and client adds its
IP_MULTICAST_IF to 224.0.0.1 ,

surprisingly i recvd pkts from the client with out joining using
IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP.

Is that a bug? or as we listening on INADDR_ANY will make us recv all
the mcast/bcast pkts?

while if i do tx on 224.0.0.3 , the server is not able to recv the packets.

any ideas?
