I did and it still does not work ...

Basically here is my config

R1 -------- R5 ----------- R2

R1 is a router having Token ring interface IP 10.1.1.1

R2 is a router having a Token ring Interface IP 10.1.1.2

R5 is the SRB router with NO IP routing or IP addresses ..

The PINGS are not going through .I know it has to be something really
silly .Only to find it !!

Thanks for you help
