I'm having a problem getting FreeBSD 2.3.7 to route multicast packets.
It will send and receive multicast packets on either interface but
I just can't get it to forward them. I have normal IP forwarding
enabled and that is working correctly. I rebuilt the kernel to include
multicast routing and have increased the TTL on the packets sent to
be 2 (also tried 5 just to be sure). The IGMP messages to join the
group seem to be sent correctly, as well as the responses to the
membership queries. I can also run mtrace and it gives me the correct
path from the target back to the source. Everything seems good, except
for the fact no packets get forwarded to the other subnet. Is there
some trick I'm missing? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
