    Kevin, I thought that if you specified message-digest as the
authentication type in your router-ospf, you had to enable "ip ospf
message-digest-key" on the interface along with "ip ospf authentication
message-digest X md5 Y" so it will do MD5? At least that what I have
working. I'll try it without.
