line is up because there is no physical problem with either the physical
port or the cable. The line protocol is up because it receives keepalive
messages from its ppp peer even it has different mask.

How come this does not work:

Router 1:
inter s0
  ip address 200.20.1.129 255.255.255.240
  encap ppp

Router 2:
inter s0
  ip address 200.20.1.130 255.255.255.224
  encap ppp

The masks are different. If the masks are different
on a serial connection, the two sides will not be
able to ping each other -- even thought the line is
up and line protocol is up.

Any ideas?
