[zebra 22979] Configuring RIP

Hi All,

      I am new to zebra and also new to routers.
      So , I am just experimenting with zebra.

      What I have done is connected two  desktop machines with Fedora Core 6
      as the OS and connected both the machines to the  same switch.

      The machine description are as follows.

      Machine 1

      1. ip     : 192.168.0.254
      2. mask   : 255.255.255.0
      3. Gateway: 192.168.0.254
  
      Machine 2
 
      1. ip    :172.16.16.1
      2. mask  :255.255.0.0
      3. Gateway : 172.16.16.1

      Now using zebra,I configured the interface on machine 1 as the same information as   
      provided below. I did the same with machine 2 with ip shown above
      
      After I configured RIP on Machine 1 , and tried the following commands.
              1. router rip
              2. network 192.168.0.0/32
              3. network eth0
              4. redistribute connected
              5. redistribute kernel
              6. write memory

     On Machine 2, I tried the same commands and advertised the network 172.16.0.0/16 


     But the problem is that after distributing the routes from both the machine, I am still 
     not able to ping each other .
     If I do ,
              show ip route on machine 2 , it is as follows
           
     Network                   Next Hop         Metric   From            Time
     C(i) 172.16.0.0/16        0.0.0.0             1     self
       
      It is not showing any RIP routes.
 
      Please help me in configuring rip correctly.
