[Xorp-users] XORP installation

[Mike Horn]

Hi Mark,

You are correct, you need to add a group named xorp and you need to add the
user(s) to the group that will be configuring the system.  Users that aren't
in group xorp can run xorpsh, but are read-only, users that are in group
xorp can run xorpsh and are read-write (e.g. they can enter configuration
mode).

Subject: [Xorp-users] XORP installation

I am new to XORP and I thought I would try installing it on freeBSD. I
installed FreeBSD 6.1 on my PC. I then installed XORP 1.3 which looked like
it compiled and installed correctly. As root I tried to run the xorp_rtrmgr
and get the following errors:

INFO xorp_rtrmgr: 17400 RTRMGR +143 userdb.cc add_user Group "xorp" does not
exist on this system. 

If I just run ./xorpsh I get an error saying cannot connect to socket.

>From the above I assume I have to add a xorp group to
FreeBSD. Reading the XORP docs I don't see where is states this in the
installation procedure.

Is this the case or am I missing something else?

I know this may be trivial, but I appreciate the help.
