Redirecting to misc@, as that is more appropriate (although I have my
doubts, see below)

What do you mean ? It comes with the base OS, so this seems like a
weird statement to make. Do you mean that you've installed OpenBSD to
be able to use ospf with OpenOSPFD ? Or are you, by any chance, not
running OpenBSD ?

You will need to chmod g-rw /usr/local/etc/ospfd.conf, apparently.
This is what the error is telling you. The fact that it's not started
after you get that message should be an indicator if it's good or bad.
It's weird though, since the configuration file for OpenOSPFD should
live in /etc/ .. are you by any chance not using OpenBSD ?
| When I enter "ospfctl" I received message:

That's probably because ospfd is not running. Once it's running, it'll
open a unix domain socket in /var/run/ so it can be controlled with
ospfctl(8). If it's not running, the socket should not be there since
there's nothing to control.

Yeah, I have an idea. I think you're missing some details about your
setup in this e-mail. How about telling us what OS you're running.
This is an OpenBSD mailinglist, you know.
