ripd (quagga) RHEL3 vs. RHEL4

[Jos Vos <jos xos nl>]

Hi,

Is there something to think about when setting up zebra/ripd on
a RHEL4 system?  It looks like my simple setup that works fine
on a RHEL3 system (redistributing static/kernel routes via
RIP and listening for incoming RIP) does not work on a RHEL4
system.  Both daemons start fine, but ripd just seems to ignore
incoming RIP packets and does not send out RIP packages itself.

I strace'd ripd and it actually receives incoming RIP, but it
does not add the corresponding routes.

Am I missing something obvious (maybe some kernel parameter
that's needed for a 2.6 kernel)?

P.S.
There are no firewall rules involved.

Thanks,
