Wei,
On R3 add "area 0 auth mess". As virtual link is considered as part of area
0 and you have enabled authentication on virtual link only on one router.

Subject: OSPF Virtual-Link and authentication
Hi,
In this scenario, I am having trouble to get
complete routes in R1, any idea how to solve this ?
R1<------>R2<------>R3<------->R4
R1 has loopback address that runs OSPF area 55
R1 connect with R2 using OSPF area 55
R2 connect with R3 using OSPF area 5
R3 connect with R4 using OSPF area 0 with md5 auth
R4 has loopback address that runs OSPF area 0 with
md5 auth
In this scenario, I know I have to use virtual link
in R3,
R3#
router ospf 10
area 5 virtual-link (OSPF-ID R2)
R2#
area 5 virtual-link (OSPF-ID R3)
area 0 authentication message-diggest
But the problem in here, only area 0 that runs
authentication using md5, others area not using
md5 authentication.
When I using that configuration, I only get partial
routes (from backbone) in R1, However if I put
area 55 using authentication md5 and change
configuration in R3 to
R3#
area 5 virtual-link (OSPF-ID R2)
area 55 authentication message-digest
in R1, I will get complete routes (from backbone)
so my question is , how can you configure OSPF
if and only if area 0 that have authentication md5
and get complete routes in R1 using virtual link ?
Thanks in advance
