        !            19: 
        !            20: 1. Apply the PIM kernel patches, recompile, reboot.
        !            21:    These contain necessary bug fixes to the ipmroute kernel code as well 
        !            22:    as stuff needed only for PIM-SM.
        !            23: 
        !            24: 2. Copy pimdd.conf to /etc and edit as appropriate. Disable the interfaces
        !            25: you don't need. Note that you need at least 2 physical interfaces enabled.

        !            29: 4. Recompile pimdd (you need to have the 'include' files patches applied)
        !            30: 
        !            31: 5. Run pimdd as a root. It is highly recommended to run it in debug mode.
        !            32: Because there are many debug messages, you can specify only a subset of
        !            33: the messages to be printed out:
        !            34: 
        !            35: usage: pimdd [-c configfile] [-d [debug_level][,debug_level]]
        !            36: 
        !            37: Valid debug levels: dvmrp_prunes,dvmrp_mrt,dvmrp_neighbors,dvmrp_timers,igmp_proto,igmp_timers,igmp_members,trace,timeout,pkt,interfaces,kernel,cache,rsrr,pim_hello,pim_register,pim_join_prune,pim_graft,pim_bootstrap,pim_asserts,pim_cand_rp,pim_routes,pim_timers,pim_rpf
        !            38: 
        !            39: If you want to see all messages, use "pimd -d" only.
        !            40: 
        !            41: 6. There are plenty of bugs, some of them known (check BUGS.TODO),
