[Alternatively: What the heck IS multicasting and what applications
make use of it?]
First off, to you'll need to rebuild a kernel with multicast support in it.
This requires that you have the sources to at least the kernel and the config
utility. See /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/LINT for its comments on multicast; you'll
need to set the MROUTING and MULTICAST options as shown there.
Multicast host operations are fully supported in FreeBSD 2.0 by default.
If you want your box to run as a multicast router, you will need to load
the ip_mroute_mod loadable kernel module and run mrouted.
