Marc,

I was going thru ur configs summary that u gave and "yes" what u are
doing is right and the expected behaviour. I just went back and re-read
the related topics such that i fully understand it.

I went you to read the doc pertaining to it (better than my
explaining).Please read the last para of this white paper under "Default
routes in NSSA".

 http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk826/tk365/technologies_tech_note09186a0080094a88.shtml

Hope that helps. Thanks ! in a way i revised something i had learnt long
back.

Good Luck,[IMAGE]
Kasturi.
