OSPF - VLinks and multiple hop:

Hi All:

I have a question on virtual links:

Say I have the following:

------------R4----------R1----------R3----------R2
----AREA_2--X--AREA_3----X--AREA_3---X--AREA_0---

I can get a tunnel in this senerio to work fine. However, I am having a problem
getting a virtual link between
R4->R3
Seems R3 does not like the virtual link coming from and thinks there is a ospf
area missmatch.
the basics:
R4:
area 3 virtual-link 190.10.3.3
R3:
area 3 virtual-link 190.10.4.4

I am getting errors about vitual-link miss matches. Do I not use the RID in
this case? OR do I need to create a VL between R3-R1, R1-R4?

So - how do I create a vitual link between two router (R4->viaR1->R3) with a
ABR in the middle?

What am i missing?

Thanks.
DMT
