Perhaps a routed still running not finding any RIP information?
Turn routed off in /etc/sysconfig.

PS: It is always the same behaviour here :(

BSD is not Linux. Linux is a damn-kernel by Linus (arrogant es everytime),
developping a little bit like M$. BSD is a nice COMPLETE operating system,
without hacks a la "svgalib"... I would prefer FreeBSD in every circumstance
here. I am sure Linus will want cash when Linux will be used by more than
10% of PC users... And with Linux you'll always have this GPL thing,
spreading like a virus over the net. You can't do anything usable with GPL
apps. When I want to sell a system with a Unix as a server, this GPL thing
always makes things complicated.
