RE: Multicast Helper address - broadcast to multicast

My understanding of topology below email is
Bcast source --e1 R7 e0---f0/0.79 R9 f0/0.39---Bcast receiver.

Then, with an assumption that multicasting is working
the below is what I am thinking
 
e1 of R7 needs to convert broadcast to multicast and
R7
interface Ethernet0
ip multicast helper-map broadcast 239.1.1.1 181

f0/0.39 of R9 needs to convert multicast to broadcast.
R9
interface FastEthernet0/0.39
ip multicast helper-map 239.1.1.1 178.21.34.255 181

Subject: Multicast Helper address - broadcast to multicast

Have you ever get multicast helper work?

I am using the config from Williamson book without success. I used version
12.2(15)T9 and 12.1.17.

The broadcast source is connected to R7's eth 1.
The broadcast receiver is connected to R9's fasth0/0.39
R7 eth0 connects to R9 fa0/0.79

I am generating UDP broadcast with Hping2. R7 receives it but does not
convert to multicast.
