Maybe I was to enthusiast I tested with a wrong version .. sorry about that. What I noticed is now that I use the latest compiled version, that I receive messages like: 

[ 2010/08/17 21:01:01  ERROR xorpsh:4089 LIBCOMM +610 comm_sock.c comm_sock_connect4 ] Error connecting socket (family = 2, remote_addr = 127.0.0.1, remote_port = 19999): Connection refused

Which tells me the xorp_rtrmgr is not started (or failed to start) for some reason. 

I start the xorp_rtrmgr from a script, and when I start the xorp_rtrmgr manual (from the command line) with the same config file .. the xorp_rtrmgr just starts. When I use the xorp version builds from the ports of FreeBSD (and earlier builds of xorp.ct) it just works .. as in I can start xorp_rtrmgr from my script. 

Don't know what is causing this. I'm searching at this moment. Hopefully a log file will tell me what is going on....
