hi,
here is a short description of the system:

debian woody (+sarge or sid)
quagga for ospf
vrrpd 0.72

network plan
                             ^
                             |
			          |
		          +~~~~~~~~~~~~+
        	  ####    |  159.102   |   #### VRRP
                      /| virtual ip |\
                     / +~~~~~~~~~~~~+ \
                 (1)/                  \(2)
                   /                    \
                  /                      \
       10.0.200.2/                        \10.0.200.1
         +------+                          +------+
#####   | gw11 |                          | gw14 |    ##### OSPF
         +------+\                         +------+
    170.1 |       \170.5
          |        \
          |         \
          |          \
    170.2 |           \170.6
       +------+170.10  +------+
       | gw12 |--------| gw13 |
       +------+   170.9+------+
          |
          |
          |
        170.64/26

there'll be a connection between gw14 and gw13 in future (it is a 
test-network)...
ospf works fine...

gw11 should be the active (vrrp) router and gw14 the backup.

gw11:
  vrrpd -i eth1 -v 1 -p 150 x.x.159.102

gw14:
  vrrpd -i eth0 -v 2 -p 100 x.x.159.102

i hope that's ok

so if i remove wire (1) gw14 should become the aktive router, but it 
doesn't until gw14 makes some traffic (ping x.x.159.101).

the ping on x.x.159.102 gets down, when removing the wire and first get up 
again, if i make a ping from gw14

and gw11 also doesn't become the active router again, if i plugin the wire 
(or du i have to do this by hand?)

regards,
  philipp päper
