Hi,

I've got a problem with xorp configuration. 
Actually in my case situation looks like this:

R3 <-> R5 <-> R4 <-> R6  

where:

R3 is an ABR of area 0 (left side) and area 1 (right side)
R5 is internal of area 1
R4 is ABR of area 1(left side) and area 3 (right side)
R6 internal of area 3 

everything works fine until i want to configure virtual link between R3 and R4
I added virtual-link section to area 0.0.0.0 in ospf4 section

                area 0.0.0.0 {
                        virtual-link 192.168.0.40 {
                                transit-area: 0.0.0.1
                        }
                       ....
and tried to add virtual-link to R4 without succeed because of error:
Command failed Virtual link must be in area 0.0.0.0

my question is how to configure virtual link at R4 ?

R3 reports something like this

root at r3> show ospf4 neighbor
  Address         Interface             State      ID              Pri  Dead
192.168.6.50     eth3/eth3              Full      192.168.0.50     128    33
192.168.5.40     vlink/192.168.0.40     Init      192.168.0.40       0     0
....

Please help, It is very important for me!
Thank you

Best regards,
Tom
