You probably should not be disabling keepalives, that forces the interfaces
to "think" they are up, but is probably not what they wanted you to do...
you need to turn on "frame-relay switching" and create a Frame-Relay
intf-type DCE on one of the two routers. Cisco calls this hybrid
frame-relay, I've done this a couple of times works great.

See this link for details: (watch for word wrap)

I'd be surprised if your config works..which one is the DTE
and which is the DCE..
I have a frame switch setup in my lab which works..and the
frame switch uses frame relay
routing and DCE/Clock rate commands..

Also the Lab as I understand it is already configured for
things like that..we should only have to configure the
routers that connect to each other..altho people have said
here and elsewhere that it might be in my interest
to know how to set up a frame switch...
