Hello all,
I had find an other new thing. I do not know that it is bug in Cisco IOS
or feature. :-)

Cisco IOS 12.1(10)

according to following Cisco CCO OSPF authentication configuration for
Virtual area

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/104/27.html

authentication key or message digest key should also be assign on
interface towards area 1. I have seen that it is not necessary Virtual
link comes up without assign key to interface.
If any one have information about this please update me.
