	Sounds like you're a lot newer than the last release of Zebra is.  If
you are running a modern Linux distribution (or maybe the BSD's) you are
probably running Quagga, a fork of Zebra, and not Zebra.  There are now
a lot of things in Quagga that never made it into Zebra.  There hasn't
been anything going on with Zebra, the project, in a long time.

	Insufficient information to proceed.  Yes, the documentation is thick
as mud but if you don't already understand the basics of the routing
protocols and their configuration, there's not much we can do to help.
Quite frankly, just your question tells me you shouldn't be monkeying
with these.  You're asking how to configure ripd, ripngd, ospfd, and
ospf6d in one question?  Do you even know which you want to use or what
you intend to do with it?  I won't say they are mutually exclusive
(certainly ospfd and ospf6d could be seen together) but you carpet
bombing us for newbie help and that tends to encourage me to direct you
to an introductory text in routing protocols.

	1) What are you trying to do with it?

	2) What protocols do you require?

	3) What platforms are you on.

	4) Describe your network.

	5) Take it to the Quagga list.  At least that fork is maintained.
