Basic Multicasting

Hi all,

I'm doing a real basic multicast lab but I just don't seem to be getting the
results I'm expecting. I've a hub and spoke frame-relay setup. R1 is the hub
and R2, R3 are the spokes. I've enabled the serial interfaces with PIM
dense-mode and have frame-relay maps (broadcast enabled) to every router.
Every router also has an ethernet to which I join multicast group 225.0.5.5.

When I ping the group address 225.0.5.5 from the hub only the local ethernet
responds. When I ping at the spokes only the local ethernet and the hub
respond. I was under the impression that dense-mode had no real issues.

I'm going to do some more research about issues with mulicasting and
frame-relay networks but if anyone has any ideas I'd appreciate it. Thanks.
the configs are as follows : -
