It sounds like you are trying to use FreeBSD interface names on a Red 
Hat system. Is this correct? As explained in previous replies you will 
need to edit the rip.boot example configuration file for your system, 
and consult the user manual for advice on how to do this.

Are both your Windows machine and the XORP router configured to be on 
the same LAN, are they plugged in, patched etc?

Have you checked your file permissions, is this a writable filesystem?
Which command(s) did you try to use in order to save the file?

thanks,
