6 UDPcast is a file transfer tool that can send data simultaneously to
7 many destinations on a LAN. This can for instance be used to install
8 entire classrooms of PC's at once. The advantage of UDPcast over using
9 other methods (nfs, ftp, whatever) is that UDPcast uses Ethernet's
10 multicast abilities: it won't take longer to install 15 machines than it
11 would to install just 2.
