Hello "Offerbaruch",
I now have quagga+ospfd up and running on RHEL 5.2 (+ yum update ran
today), and chatting happily with my SLES-10-SP2 systems ;-)

First problem was that RHEL 5.2 starts a firewall automatically on boot.
This blocks incoming OSPF packets, duh!
I simply disabled the firewall (chkconfig --del iptables).

Next problem (at least for me because I want a mixed environment of SUSE
and RHEL) was the level of quagga on RHEL of 98.6 built in April 2007!
SUSE SLES-10-SP2 ships quagga at 99.9 (and even 99.7 on SLES-9-SP4).

I took the source rpm from the source DVD for 98.6, downloaded the
latest 0.99.11 quagga tarball from quagga.net, reworked the spec file
did an rpmbuild -bb,
then installed my nice new quagga rpm ;-)

Rather than fill this mailing list with attachments - if you want
anything contact me offlist:

regards
mark perry
