Tarek,

GRE tunnel is so cooool thing that u can do anything with it.

    Yes u can !

    Yes u can !
> - use a VLSM network in EIGRP like I did?
    Sorry pal u can't !
If ur running 12.1 IOS then by using MASK in eigrp u can do that too.

GRE will simulate on the other end that the remote networks are connected
just after the tunnel interface. U can use tunnel accross anything ,
condition is that the network should be of IP.
