Re: ripd (quagga) RHEL3 vs. RHEL4



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)?

I found that (for us) ospf6d didn't work on RHEL4ES/x86_64, and the symptoms you describe sound familiar... I compiled quagga using the .spec file supplied with the quagga sources (rpmbuild -ta quagga-xxx.tar.gz), and that works great for me. It seems to me that the Red Hat supplied quagga is very buggy.

Good luck,
Sander.
