Hi Matt,

TNX for the info about the 'rip44d' ... just tried,
it works very well on my server.
I should compile and install two CPAN libraries prior to
run the rip44d:

IO::Interface
IO::Socket::Multicast

Yes, I know. However, as nowadays, a new 'encap.txt' is released
by the new 'portal.ampr.org' suddenly as one parameter is changed
on its database: i.e., a change of a host dynamic IP address...
The 'encap.txt' format remains fully compatible without any change
for sourcing it on JNOS/TNOS servers, so not so bad.

But, as per JNOS2.0i, on January 2011, a kinda RIPv2 server
was implemented to it to accomplish that automatic routing map,
since the AMPRnet gateway system began offering RIPv2 updates
through the IPIP tunnel. I knew and apply only this last method...

I don't know about the new 'ampr.org' setup, however it
appears as a new reorganization, as a follow-up of the new
'portal.ampr.org'...
However the 160router.ampr.org is belonging to portal.ampr.org
so it is impossible to be out-to-date.
The actual rip44d claims are due (I think) to the fact that
its multicasts lack of a password entry... so, by setting on
it the actual password string, the rip44d continue to run as due.
