thanks for replying Chuck!

The links are UP and stable. a thousand 1500 bytes
PING packet goes without dropping over the async link.
i have enabled CDP too and that works like a charm
too.

But running OSPF or even RIP for that matter over this
link is driving me nuts. the processes just dont seem
to wanna talk to to the neighbor. i even tried
manually configuring the neigbor for OSPF, but no
luck!
