Ok, it's working better now.   OSPF starts, but I haven't
tested if it actually talks with other OSPF servers, etc.

Here's how I started it:

    To run xorp on windows:

    *  Unzip it somewhere
    *  Change to the xorp/sbin directory
    *  Start router-mgr:
      set XORP_PF=t
      set XORP_ROOT=..
      xorp_rtrmgr.exe -c config.boot.t xt -t ..\share\xorp\templates -m ..\lib\xorp\bin

    * In another window, start xorpsh:
      set XORP_PF=t
      set XORP_ROOT=..
      xorpsh

Here's a sample config file (Original courtesy of Asif @ iQor)
