Actually I am intereseted to listen to any comments on this topic cos it
happend to me and i removed the ospf configuration and start it from the
scratch then restarted the routers then it worked, i was thinking that iam
typing space after the password but it seems like i am not the only one
suffering from this problem.

Subject: OSPF Virtual Link Authentication
I was working on Fatkid 401 OSPF lab tonight and I could never get the
virtual link authentication to work correctly. No matter what I did, I
would get errors stating I had a mismatched authentication key. Well, the
key was "cisco" so that's not too hard to type in correctly. Still, I
played with the configs on the two relevant routers and I rebooted them
several times, all to no avail.
I even changed the authentication type to md5 and got the same message.
Very weird. I thought at one point this was an IOS issue because one router
was running 11.2(7) and the other 11.2(25a). I upgraded the first one to
11.2(25a) and I still see the same error.
I peeked at the solution and saw that I had it configured exactly how they
suggested. Then I checked CCO and saw that they suggest the same
configuration.
Do any of you have any tips for configuring virtual link authentication?
This seems to be a pretty simple config and I don't see what I'm missing.
Thanks,
John
