RE: extended ping question

ok, so this leads me to my next question regarding static mroutes for this
particual scenario

Server-----e0/0--R1--S0/0--------s0/0--R2--e0/0---"igmp join-gr 225.1.1.1
1.1.1.5 1.1.1.1 2.1.1.1 2.1.1.2 3.1.1.1

just for the sake of discussion, there is an rpf failure on R2 to ther
server. so i need to create static mroutes on R2 to point towards the right
interface. usually what i do is the following:
ip mroute 150.1.1.1 255.255.255.255 s0/0 <150.1.1.1 being the lo0 of R1>
then if i ping from r1 i get a response from R2....but the problem is that
i've been lazy and have not gone all the way back to the source .... so i
would guess that i need the following:

ip mroute 2.1.1.1 255.255.255.255 s0/0
ip mroute 150.1.1.1 255.255.255.255 s0/0
ip mroute 1.1.1.0 255.255.255.0 s0/0 <---- this one being the most
important for the fact that if i source an extended ping from address
1.1.1.5, R2 will need to know how to get to network 1.1.1.0.

<i don't have a router in front of me so i might be wrong about the next-hop
address vs. interface address in the static mappings.....>..but the point
being that i believe i need, and for best practices, i would need an mroute
pointing to network 2.1.1.0, 1.1.1.0, and 150.1.1.0. am i right about this?

TIA
