Description jonny 1998-06-14 03:30:00 UTC 
The mrouted that comes with FreeBSD 2.2 is compatible with version
3.8, which has a serious prunning bug.  The mrouted program could
be upgraded, but since 3.9 is still beta, maybe it's not recommended
yet.  As a workaround while it is not updated, I created this port.  
It's useful for those people who suffer the bug, like me.

Fix: The port's subdir is at the end.  To make transition easier,
      the following patches are needed also in /etc/rc.network and
      /etc/rc.conf (please, don't forget -stable):
How-To-Repeat: 
	Create a multicast network with tunnel loops for redundancy.   :)

Oops.  Cut&Paste too fast.

+named_program=""               # mrouted program, in case we want 3.9beta instead.

Obviously, I did not intend to write named.  :^)
