Hi Archie, Try to post your mbone related questions to multimedia@freebsd.org You can set a tunnel between your host and the mrouted at the other end with no problems. Just read the manpage on mrouted. Also it will not cost you a subnet. Regards, Amancio >From The Desk Of Archie Cobbs : > > The mbone is cool!
