SITN-all interfaces to ping!!!?

Dear,

I worked on the Fatkid lab number 502 (expert redistribution) and a problem
came up.

Here it part of the topology-

--(hub and Spoke)---FR--hub (R4)---R5 between R4 and R5, IGRP process is
running with a 24 prefix mask. On the FR net. only OSPF is running. 22
prefix mask for the FR.

* At the first time, I used a broadcast OSPF domain for my FR network with
no subinterfaces and a /22 mask.

How come can you advertise the /22 network to R5 without redistributing
static route??? (a summary-address command doesn't work here because of the
24 bits takes precedence over the "real" 22 in the routing table therefore
preventing you from pinging all the WAN interfaces)

* After this, I tried with a Point-To-Multipoint OSPF network. I issued then
a summary-address command to force R4 to advertise the /22 net to R5.
As the PTM OSPF network forces the router to advertise a /32 net. for the
WAN interfaces connected to the others, I could ping them from R5 EXCEPT the
one on R4!!!!!!!!!

Can someone tell me how to resolve this problem????

Regards,

Vincent
