See if this helps.

To enable RIP Listening
Click Start, point to Settings, click Control Panel, and then double-click
Add/Remove Programs.
Click Add/Remove Windows Components.
In Components, select Networking Services (but do not select its check box),
and then click Details.
Select the RIP Listener check box, and then click OK.
Click Next, and then follow the instructions in the wizard.

Notes

You must be logged on as an administrator or a member of the Administrators
group in order to complete this procedure. If your computer is connected to
a network, network policy settings may also prevent you from completing this
procedure.
When you enable RIP Listening (also called silent RIP), your computer can
learn other routes on the network by listening to RIP messages, and then
adding their IP addresses to the route table. Thus, you do not need to
manually add routes to the route table. This service can be useful in some
dial-up network situations, such as when the computer is operating as a
remote access client over a dial-up connection to a corporate network. In
this example, Windows 2000 can listen and dynamically update its default
route table to include additional routes valid for the corporate network.
These additional routes can improve network access and performance over the
dial-up connection by reducing the number of packets that are sent to the
incorrect router.
Microsoft Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS) can be configured to send
out either RIPv1, RIPv2, or both types of packets. However, RIP listening
only listens and updates route information sent by routers that use RIPv1.
Certain Windows components require configuration before thay can be used. If
you installed one or more of these components, but did not configure them,
when you click Add/Remove Windows Components, a list of components that need
to be configured is displayed. To start the Windows Components wizard, click
Components.

On my sniffer i tracked down a few pc's running rip on my internal network
that do not need to be. i know who/where the devices are. does anyone know
how to check if a windows 2000 machine is running rip? i think it might be
the routing and remote services under admin tools but im not sure if that is

the only place to turn it on at. tia
