Your routed is getting RIPed from routers (162.129.254.61 and
162.129.254.62) that you have not defined in /etc/gateways. See
the man pages for routed (in.routed).

Hello,
I've seen this problem when i have the sun plugged into the wrong network.
It might also be that the routers are plugged into the wrong net, although
I doubt that two would be wrong. What is the IP address of the machine that
has the error messages? It should be 162.129.<something>.<something>. You
might also have your subnet mask set incorrectly. If you dont use subnetting
it should be 255.255.0.0.
Hope any of this is of some help to you.

You are running routed on your machine and probably have multiple
subnets on your ethernet. There are a couple of solutions
1) don't run routed but instead use static routes
(if you only have one router on your cable this is a reasonable
approach)
2) create a /etc/gateways file and make a passive entry for the
subnet (type man routed for more info)

Your systems are running the routed daemon, which is why you see those
messages. If you do not want to run routed, then create a file called
/etc/defaultrouter in which you should have the IP address of your
router. Then reboot. The system checks for the existance of the
defaultrouter file and when it does not find it, it starts routed.
