Subject:   -78- What is sending packets to the sgi-dog.mcast.net
                multicast address?

  The objectserver. It's using that address intentionally; SGI just
  didn't bother to define a new one. David Klingler
  <dave@crusader.hd.hac.com> points out that if you don't use any
  directoryservers and want to get rid of the objectserver multicast
  packets, you can add '-m 127.0.0.1' to
  /etc/config/objectserver.options and they will go away.
