Hi,

I have just installed FreeBSD 2.1 at a downstream customer's site 
primarily as a router and mail server. All is working pretty well except 
it doesnt seem to want to advertise RIP. The link is using the dialup 
PPP interface, local ethernet is ed1 and running "routed -s".

I do not have an entry in /etc/gateways but there is a default route in 
the PPP demand dial script.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.
