   I ask Garrett and he forgot Jim Lowe's posting to the hacker's mailing
   list he did point me to freefall where I couldn't find any code for 
   multicasting. At any rate thanks guys, I do have multicasting 
   working on my system :)

Ok, just so long as everyone realizes that this is not part of the
official FreeBSD, or even -current, source tree at the moment.  It's
entirely something Amancio has done custom to his own system.  It would
be wrong to say that `FreeBSD has multicast support' in any general
context.

Thanks.
