 Ok, to get OSPF going first hack zebra.conf and ospfd.conf 
  
  
 The remote stations need stuff like this ; 
  
-# zebra .conf

-hostname whatever  
-password passwd  
-enable password passwd

+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.
