Depends on your OS. zebra will get realtime notification on Linux with 
netlink, and on *bsd with "routing socket".

And then there are times when netlink communication dies and causes a bgp prefix
to get 'stuck' as kernel route :( hahah

Never had problems with socket/ioctl though.

Looks like an expect script telneting to the ospfd and removing the
network statement from the router ospf section is the best way, or is
there some more elegant mechanism people use? Thanks
Vtysh is somewhat simpler than telnetting.
