This article was previously published under Q166283 SYMPTOMS
When the Routing tab in TCP/IP properties is open, you may receive the
following message:
IP forwarding (IP Routing) allows packets to be forwarded on a multi-
homed system. The routing information may be static, or may be
collected by RIP for Internet Protocol. RIP is a service that can be
installed from the Network Control Panel service page.
However, when you check the Services tab in Network properties, you do not
see RIP for Internet Protocol.
CAUSE
RIP for Internet Protocol is not available in Windows NT Workstation unless
you install SP4. It is available in Windows NT Server only.
RESOLUTION
