[Xorp-users] Issue in BGP Configuration

Hi,

The messages you have logged normally appear if the XORPSH is not able 
to connect to the Router Manager for some reason.

I don't see anything obviously wrong with your configuration file, and 
it app

Things to try:

* Can you confirm that the BGP process is running and listening for XRLs?

A basic way of doing this is to check for the process with 'ps' and 
install a command such as 'lsof' from your Linux distribution's package 
facility, then use 'lsof -p your-bgp-process-pid' to see which sockets 
the BGP process has opened.

* Does localhost.localdomain resolve in both directions using what's 
available to your system's DNS resolver?

* To verify this try pinging localhost.localdomain from a shell.

* What's the contents of your /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/hosts files?

thanks
BMS
