 [Isomer] says to stick everything in area 0, <shrug> so do it his way ok.. 
  
 PerryLorier: Yeah, because dealing with area's is a bitch, and if you are just learning, stick everything in area 0, when your network gets large enough that convergance times are starting to become a worry, think about different areas then, but before that time, stick everything in area 0 and you'll save yourself a lot of hassle. Also, remember that Area 0 is "special" to [OSPF], so if you decide to use area 42 or whatever, it __will__ break.
