Include 3725 E0 interface in the EIGRP process. Do not send out any EIGRP
hello packets out the Ethernet interface.
Accomplish this without using any passive-interface command.

.... iam sorry i don`t understand how this is possible ..

in order for eigrp to sync it needs to send hello packets to it`s
neigbhor...

i can use the neighbor command ,which will unicast ....but it STILL sends
hello`s...

if i nat ...all i do is change the type of packet .....it`s still a hello
packet

again i could turn it into a stub ...but it still has to send heelo`s to
communicate with it`s neigbhor...

AFAIK ....you CANT communicate between eigrp host WITHOUT hello`s

can someone please clarify...

question was posed by my SE....

many thanks in advance
