Due to an extreme annoying problem with the standard Linux
distribution I am getting RIP packets from linux sites all
around the world. If you get this message, it means you, or
a site in one of your subdomains is sending me RIP packets
illegally. I manage several sun's here, and I did not at any
time give permissions for Linux to add my system as a default.
You (or one of your subdomains) has obviously started routed
without checking the /etc/gateways file first. In that file
you'll see entries with 193.78.33.42. Could you please remove those.
They are causing unneccesary and unwanted traffic to my domain.
Thanks..
Cor Bosman
