See if this helps. To enable RIP Listening Click Start, point to
Settings, click Control Panel, and then double-click Add/Remove Programs.
Click Add/Remove Windows Components. In Components, select Networking
Services (but do not select its check box), and then click Details.
Select the RIP Listener check box, and then click OK. Click Next, and
then follow the instructions in the wizard.
Notes
You must be logged on as an administrator or a member of the
Administrators group in order to complete this procedure. If your
computer is connected to a network, network policy settings may also
prevent you from completing this procedure. When you enable RIP Listening
(also called silent RIP), your computer can learn other routes on the
network by listening to RIP messages, and then adding their IP addresses
to the route table. Thus, you do not need to manually add routes to the
route table. This service can be useful in some dial-up network
situations, such as when the computer is operating as a remote access
client over a dial-up connection to a corporate network. In this example,
Windows 2000 can listen and dynamically update its default route table to
include additional routes valid for the corporate network. These
additional routes can improve network access and performance over the
dial-up connection by reducing the number of packets that are sent to the
incorrect router. Microsoft Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS) can
be configured to send out either RIPv1, RIPv2, or both types of packets.
However, RIP listening only listens and updates route information sent by
routers that use RIPv1. Certain Windows components require configuration
before thay can be used. If you installed one or more of these
components, but did not configure them, when you click Add/Remove Windows
Components, a list of components that need to be configured is displayed.
To start the Windows Components wizard, click Components. From: "Wright,

Subject: OT: RIP on PC Date: Tue, 28 May 2002 10:55:17 -0500 On my
sniffer i tracked down a few pc's running rip on my internal network that
do not need to be. i know who/where the devices are. does anyone know how
to check if a windows 2000 machine is running rip? i think it might be
the routing and remote services under admin tools but im not sure if that
is the only place to turn it on at. tia ************************ Jeremy
