Re: GK discovery

Hi Neil,

not a lot of endpoints support multicast GK discovery, but GnuGk
supports it, as well as discovery by broadcast. Multicast is on by
default unless you have UseMulticastListener=0 in your config. But you
have to make sure multicast is configured correctly in your OS.

callgen323 will use boradcast autodiscovery by default, if you don't
specify a gatekeeper IP and don't switch off using a gatekeeper with -n.

Regards,
Jan
