OSPF summary problem!

i was trying the Fatkid 501 redistribution lab when i got this problem

the lab is 5 routers , 3 of them (R1,R2,R3) are in area 0 over Frame relay
with a subnet of 28 bit mask
one of this routers ( R3) are connected to another router ( R4) forming area
3 on the link between them , and another area on its loopback interface
(area 2 )

now R4 is connected to another router (R5) and the link between them is
running IGRP with subnet of mask 24 .......i hope this is clear to you

the problem is
i have formed a virtual link between R4 and R3 and things looked fine to me
BUT when i redistribute the OSPF to the IGRP , the 28 bit subnet never
appeared to R5
i summarized the network , trying the AREA range command at R3 , then at R4
 i tried also the summary-address at R4....but the subnet never appeared in
R5
although some other networks ( of 26 bit masks) appreared fine when i
summarized them at 24 bit boundry
can anyone knows where is the problem ??

NOTE:when i configured the frame relay interfaces as point-to-mulitpoint ,
only the 32 address appreared in the routing tables , when i changed the
network type to broadcast type , the 28 bit subnet appeared ..but still it
didnt go to the far IGRP router ...
wat is the problem ????
