If you do manage to get it working, please post it to the list or send a
write up to myself or Mike Noyes and it WILL get posted in the FAQ
section.  We just don't have people on the list who seem to be using
OSPF.

Thanks George. I was beginning to feel unloved. ;-)

I have been able to find some references to brave souls who have
combined LEAF and Zebra through the Zebra mail list so I am following up
there. Will let this list know if I learn anything useful.

Well, since it's been sitting for 3 days without a reply, I'll take a
quick stab at it.

Frankly, OSPF scares me on Ciscos, and they're at least sorta designed
for it. =)

I don't know too much about OSPF in general, but if you do, then from
what I've been told the Zebra implementation is pretty easy for OSPF. I
personally would rather use default route/weighted route methods rather
than OSPF unless there's a pressing need to do so - such as the two
routers mentioned happen to be in totally different locations
topography-wise. Even then, it could be sticky.

Not much help at all, I know, but at least a "we don't know" is better
than no comment.
