Transitive on what? – Max Mar 15 2012 at 10:34

I found the following by googling :

Kramer, Linus. Two-transitive Lie groups. J. Reine Angew. Math. 563 (2003), 83-113.

also available as arxiv:math/0106108

It completely classifies locally compact sigma-compact groups $G$ acting effectively and 2-transitively on a non totally disconnected space $X$ (hausdorff I presume) : then $G$ is a Lie group, $X$ is a connected manifold, and the examples are listed sperately, according to wether $X$ is compact or not.

It remains to extract the 3-transitive cases, which should not be too hard.
