I'll try and save everyone's time with a quick diagram here of the
various machines involved:

-----------------------------------------------------------------
jkh home side			|| walnut creek side
				\/
time		whisker
ed0 <---------> ed0		freefall
		sl0 <---------> sl0		who
				ed0 <---------> ed0 <---> BARRNET


who, which is the primary point of entry for WC's mbone feed,
runs mrouted with a very simply mrouted.conf:

tunnel 192.216.222.3 192.216.178.67 metric 1 threshold 64 rate_limit 400

Which is our tunnel to BARRNET.  However, I also want who to forward
multicast traffic to freefall which should in turn route it to whisker
(my LAN's gateway) which should then put it on the wire for any of my
hosts to see, right?

Well, at least in theory..  I'm still battling mrouted on freefall,
trying to get it to stop doing this:

13:02:53.546 mrouted version 3.8
13:02:53.643 Getting vifs from kernel interfaces
13:02:53.644 installing ed0 (192.216.222.4 on subnet 192.216.222.0/28) as vif #0 - rate=0
13:02:53.645 warning - ignoring sl0, same subnet as ed0

That kind of scotches my route to whisker, naturally.

So the question of the hour for me is: How do I get it to stop
ignoring this second interface?  Any configuration tips in general?
I'm definitely a newbie when it comes to multicast!
