	you may want to look at using iperf.

	if you want something lightweight, i also have an app
that i've developed (note low version number) that will run on a *nix
box.

	ftp://puck.nether.net/pub/jared/rtt-0.12.tar.gz

	it listens on a hardcoded group address in rtt_resp.c,
you can change it, then run the app .. i can provide help in private
to those that actually care about it.

	you can also use the multicast beacon
