Multicast question

Hi Gang,

I seem to have a multicast issue that I just can't figure out.

Heres the setup, 3 routers in a frame relay setup and each has a ethernet
segment,. I am using sparse-dense-mode on the serial and ethernet interfaces.
I configured the HUB to announce rp using:

ip pim send-rp-announce Ethernet1 scope 10
ip pim send-rp-discovery Ethernet1 scope 10

I have also configured the ethernet interface on the HUB to joing 2 groups
224.0.7.7 and 224.0.8.8. I can see the auto rp info on both the spokes as
such: 133.7.30.2 is the ethernet interface address on the HUB.

3#sh ip pim rp map
PIM Group-to-RP Mappings

Group(s) 224.0.0.0/4
  RP 133.7.30.2 (?), v2v1
    Info source: 133.7.30.2 (?), via Auto-RP
         Uptime: 12:59:48, expires: 00:02:44

But I can't ping the 2 addressess (224.0.0.7 & 224.0.8.8) from any of the
spokes. Theres connectivity between all these interfaces. I am using OSPF as
my routing protocol. Can anyone tell me why I can't ping these 2 addresses. Do
I need to configure the spoke ethernet interfaces to join these 2 groups as
well ?

thanks in advance.

-Jay
