Hello

Well, the current RIP implementation is not in a good shape, so this is
likely a bug in it. I would suggest to try devel version of BIRD from our
Git repository, branch rip-new. It fixes many bugs and adds many new
features to the RIP. Note that it also changes some options, e.g. options
like authentication, password, port are per-interface (like in OSPF),
honor option is removed.
