TJ,
Many things could have happened, along the lines of dynamic mappings being created before you turn off inverse arp, however if you save the config and reload, the config you show below will not allow the routers to communicate.
I have a pod and have pasted in these configs (with adjustments for addressing and DLCI numbers to illustrate.
R1 is hub with R2 and R3 as spokes.
This is my config
R1
interface Serial2/0
ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0
encapsulation frame-relay
no fair-queue
frame-relay map ip 192.168.1.2 122 broadcast
frame-relay map ip 192.168.1.3 133 broadcast
no frame-relay inverse-arp
end
R2
interface Serial1/0
ip address 192.168.1.2 255.255.255.252
encapsulation frame-relay
no fair-queue
frame-relay interface-dlci 221
no frame-relay inverse-arp
R3
interface Serial2/0
ip address 192.168.1.3 255.255.255.248
encapsulation frame-relay
frame-relay interface-dlci 331
no frame-relay inverse-arp
If I try to ping any of the addresses from a spoke, I get encapsulation failed in the debug ip packet output.

I have used the command in this exact scenario before so I know it
works.

TJ , chris, manoj
i have just seen this in the CCO about the command "frame-relay
interface-dlci"
This command is typically used for subinterfaces; however, it can also
be
used on main interfaces. Using the frame-relay interface-dlci command on
main interfaces will enable the use of routing protocols on interfaces
that
use Inverse ARP.
from what i have seen here i appologise for my previous comment`s ,
regards
Stephen Skinner
