 ERROR DESCRIPTION:
 User migrated to z/VM R440 from R430 and reports the RouteD
 console is filling up with messages:
 DTCRTD4882I DATE/TIME:
 DTCRTD4918E rtchange:  SIOCDELRT ioctl failed
 No such process (ESRCH)
 .
 Tracing the problem indicates that known routes are being
 deleted by mistakes with message:
 DTCRTD4954I X minute timer expired for route
 RouteD tries to delete the routes multiple times causing the
 above messages to fill the console.
 
 LOCAL FIX:
 Circumvention is available contact VM TCPIP Support.

 ****************************************************************
 Users see RIPv1 routes repeatedly being added to the routing
 table.  These routes expire after 3 minutes.  When RouteD tries
 to change the metric of these routes to 16, an error occurs.
 The following messages are seen many times:
 DTCRTD4954I 3 minute timer expired for route to 10.10.10.10
 DTCRTD4889I CHANGE metric destination 10.10.10.10, router
 xx.xx.xx.xx from 2 to 16
 DTCRTD4918E rtchange:  SIOCDELRT ioctl failed
 
 In addition, the RouteD internal routing table contains
 duplicate entries.
 
 PROBLEM CONCLUSION:
 When RouteD gets a RIPv1 packet and is processing the individual
 routes, it calls rtlookup to see if the route is already known.
 The rtlookup routine is not finding the match, so the same route
 will be added many times.
 
 The rtlookup routine has been changed to correctly handle RIPv1
 packets.
