You probably haven't set your home directory correctly.
groupadd xorp
mkdir /home/xorp-user
useradd -g xorp -d /home/xorp-user -p password xorp-user
reboot
start xorp_rtrmgr as root.
login as xorp-user and start xorpsh (and make sure
xorp_rtrmgr is still running when trying to start
xorpsh)
configure away!

"It doesen't anything happens" isn't very helping
you need to provide real error messages, remember
'-v'?

I told you (off list) to keep everything in
one thread. I think this is the third one on the
same subject!? pleasetry to keep it together.
