I'm a XORP new user, I configured and compiled Xorp correctly, then when
I tried to start it (by using the -n option) just to test it. He failes
to communicate with xorp_rtrmgr.
Then I understood that I have to star xorp_rtrmgr before. I did it, but
it told me that it failed to open the "config.boot" file. In the
documentation, they said that this file would exist in the xorp
installation directory, but I didn't find it! So create one, by copying
the "config.boot.sample".
I restarted xorp_rtrmgr. This time, it worked. I started "xorpsh", it
worked too. But when I tried to enter the configuration mode here is
what I had:

xorp>configure
ERROR: You do not have the permission to do this operation..
xorp>

Notice that I was doing this as root!!!
 So please somebody explain this to me, I don't really know what to do.
Thanks
