Hi I do not get why do you think that it is added with the address of zero. There is a line above specifying local address is used: me.ip = ifa->addr->ip; It seems to me that quagga elected bird, but bird for some reason does not elect itself. How often does it happen in that configuration? The election should be relatively deterministic, it should happen just on order of wait timers expiration and hello packet reception. -- Elen sila lumenn' omentielvo Ondrej 'Santiago' Zajicek (email: santi...@crfreenet.org) OpenPGP encrypted e-mails preferred (KeyID 0x11DEADC3, wwwkeys.pgp.net) "To err is human -- to blame it on a computer is even more so."
