Hello bruce, thank you for your help....
Ok, let me explain to you with more details..
 
I have installed Red Hat OS (linux)this is my router , and i tried to connect my router(xorp) with 2 computers (windows), in my 2 computers i assigned satatic addresses and i download and modify the archive that you tell me :

1st computer address 10.10.10.70
2nd computer address 10.10.10.90
 
for "cd rtrmgr/config" ? means that  i need to burn it ?? or download and modify too.
 
as soon as i modify the file , i do it in notepad , how do i need to save it ( rip.boot.txt ? ) and when i need to loaded how can i load de file ?  or do i need to open in text editor into red hot? or do i need a software to open/edit flies w/ext .boot ?
 
xorpsh
configure
edit
load rip.boot ?  ( shows "failed to open config file : rip.boot ) I dont'n know where i need to save it, 
 
and doesn't matter what extension is ( txt , doc )
 

 

( in my computer shows discard0 instead dc0 )
RIP
interfaces {
    interface eth0 {
 vif eth0 {
     address 10.10.10.70 {
  prefix-length: 24
     }
 }
    }
    interface eth1 {
 vif eth1 {
     address 10.10.10.90 {
  prefix-length: 24
     }
 }
    }
}
fea {
    unicast-forwarding4 {
 disable: false
    }
}
policy {
    policy-statement export-connected {
 term 100 {
     from {
  protocol: "connected"
     }
 }
    }
}
protocols {
    rip {
 /* Connected interfaces are advertised if explicitly exported */
 export: "export-connected"
 interface eth0 {
     vif eth0 {
  address 10.10.10.70 {
      disable: false
/*
      authentication {
   simple-password: "password";
   md5 @: u32 {                                              <-------------   It is necessary this ?
       password: "password";
       start-time: "2006-01-01.12:00"
       end-time: "2007-01-01.12:00"
   }
      }
*/
  }
     }
 }
 interface eth1 {
     vif eth1 {
  address 10.10.10.90 {
      disable: false
  }
     }
 }
    }
}
