I'm trying to configure OSPF (0.99.15) on my Linux. I want to set the router-id to 10.1.160.42. The Quagga PDF (0.99.18) has the command ospf router a.b.c.d When I telnet to port 2604, the OSPF daemon, enter enable mode, configure terminal, there is no ospf command Anybody have any ideas.

Lee, You also might want to consider rkhunter, and more importantly Tripwire(AIDE). I would expect most Linux exploits to be buffer overflows and whatnot giving root access, rather than file based viruses. Regards, Jon Veencamp Federated Insurance jdveenc...@fedins.com -Original

We used Mcafee for a few years, but cut it off for lack of viruses (none!) and decided to quit wasting the bandwidth. Brings up a good point, has anyone ever actually picked up a virus on one of their zLinux boxes, we have not since 2004. Am I living in a fool's paradise? -Original
