This means that your netmasks are not configured correctly, either on
the host, or a router to that network, or both.  It happens when
routed is listening to RIP packets labeled with one netmask on an
interface which is locally configured for another.  For example, for a
while I had one router configured for 255.255.255.0 and one for
255.255.240.0 (both on the same subnet), and it complained bitterly
until I fixed the configurations to agree.
