OSPF over NBMA

Guys,

I have a very simple FR network. One router functions at the FR switch and 2
others have a pvc between them. When I run OSPF over the FR link without
changing any OSPF interface parameters and using in-arp, hellos are not
being sent from the routers. If I change the interface type to broadcast,
they start exchanging hellos and finally build an adjacency. Now for the
interesting part, if I put a neighbor statement on one of them they start
exchanging hellos and become neighbors. If I remove the neighbor statement
it stays the same.

I'm using 2621 and 3640 with ver 12.1(4)

What am I missing here?
