<P>
The session directory server collects multicast announcements from the
Multicast backbone, consolidates the announcements on a Web page, and
makes them available to clients. The server supports Mbone announcements
of type SPD V1, SPD V2, and SGI Radio. Users on hosts running client software
can launch announcements from their Web browser.

The session directory server is started when the Internet Gateway
system starts (the chkconfig sdpd flag is on). To start the server, enter
this command:
<P>
<STRONG>/etc/init.d/run-sdpd start</STRONG>
<P>
The sdr-launch scripts must be installed on client systems for
users to ne able to participate in the multicast announcements.
To update announcements, users should reload the announcement page.
<P>
To stop the session directory server, enter this command:
<P>
<STRONG>/etc/init.d/run-sdpd stop</STRONG>
