We'll help you doglover, don't worry...
Go ahead and give me a ip igmp join-group 224.2.2.2 on R3's F0/0 and a 
Ip pim sparse-dense.
Now post back a "show ip mroute" on R2 and R3. I want to see what's in the
Multicast O.I.L.
Thanks,
Joe
(BTW: if you want to a webex to observe this work in my lab, we can, I
played this command for hours and hours and found several ways to get its
functionality without the helper-map)

Subject: Multicast helper-map - What is wrong with it? 
Hello! 
I am trying to simulate the forward of broadcast traffic into multicast
packets using the command "ip multicast helper-map", as the LAB8 of IE. 
The network is the following: 
R1 (e0/0) --- (f0/0) R2 (s0/1/0.1) <--FR--> (s0/1/0.1) R3 (fa0/0) ---
(fa0/0) R4
CONFIGS:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

***R1 - Sender Broadcast traffic via SAA:
!

rtr schedule 1 life forever start-time now
!
type udpEcho dest-ipaddr 255.255.255.255 dest-port 3434 control disable

Verification on routers: 
R1:
R1#sh rtr totals-statistics 
Entry number: 1
Start Time Index: *04:25:25.046 UTC Mon Mar 1 1993
Age of statistics entry (seconds): 3034

R2:
I can see the broadcast traffic on ethernet interface:
R2#debug ip packet detail 111
IP packet debugging is on (detailed) for access list 111
R2#
*Nov 18 19:53:21.187: IP: s=150.2.4.254 (FastEthernet0/0),

*Nov 18 19:53:22.187: IP: s=150.2.4.254 (FastEthernet0/0),
d=255.255.255.255, len 44, rcvd 2

*Nov 18 19:53:24.187:     UDP src=57531, dst=3434
But When I try to see the multicast packets: 
R2#debug ip mp
R2#debug ip mpacket 
IP multicast packets debugging is on
R2#
R2#
R2#
Nothing happens at all...
R3: 
R3#debug ip packet detail 111
IP packet debugging is on (detailed) for access list 111
R3#
Nothing happens too...

Anybody has any idea about what is wrong? Brian, could you help me? 
I read everything that I found about this, but i really don't know what is
wrong...:
- Developing IP Multicast Networks - Chapter 16 - "Broadcast-Multicast
Traffic Conversion" 
- IEWB - LAB 8 - Version 4
- "ip multicast helper-map" command:

Thanks for any help,
