Well, I found the following information about Ethernet switches:

"Data received on any port of a repeating hub will be repeated on all of 
its ports. Unicast, broadcast and multicast messages are all the same to 
a repeating hub. With a switching hub or switch, unicast messages are 
only sent to the ports involved in a conversation. However, a standard 
unmanaged switch without IGMP snooping will handle a multicast message 
just like a broadcast message: it will receive the message on one port 
and transmit the message onwards on all other ports."

See

It would appear that a direct inter-machine connection is the way to go.

Now I need to understand why it works fine into my WinXP laptop, but not 
into the Win2k machine.

Any further comments or suggestions would be welcome!
