Hi, I think it would be a good idea if we de-orbit /usr/sbin/mrouted in 7-CURRENT. Several reasons: 1. DVMRP is not specified for any new multicast installations; PIM is the de-facto standard now. 2. The code generates warnings during a buildworld (see bin/71633) 3. Given point (1) it probably doesn't belong in the base system; there is more interest in multicast these days because of things like zeroconf, however, DVMRP no longer belongs in a PIM world. What say thee? Regards, BMS
