I think your lifetime is too short. Lifetime is in msec. So, a
lifetime of 5, means your Frame-Relay RTT needed to be 5ms. (Unlikely,
depending on your configuration). Back-to-back with 2Mbps clock rate,
I'm at 16ms.

Looks like your config might have been on an older platform, but here's
my config that I mocked up that worked on 12.4T (ip sla commands, rather
than rtr).

Here's the config I did that worked:

Receiver Router (R5):
+++++++
Ip sla responder frame-relay all

R5(config)#do sho ip sla respo
IP SLAs Responder is: Disabled

Frame Relay Responder:
    Enabled on every Interface and DLCI

Sender router (R4):
++++++
Ip sla 1
 frame-relay interface serial0/0 dlci405
 timeout 100
 frequency 1
Ip sla schedule 1 start-time now

R4#sho ip sla statistics

Round Trip Time (RTT) for Index 1
        Latest RTT: 16 milliseconds
Latest operation start time: *16:40:48.496 UTC Sat Jun 30 2007
Latest operation return code: OK
Number of successes: 454
Number of failures: 0
Operation time to live: 3107 sec

On R5, I shut down the WAN interface:
R5(config)#int se0/0
R5(config-if)#shut

Then I looked at stats again on R4:

R4#sho ip sla statistics

Round Trip Time (RTT) for Index 1
        Latest RTT: Unknown
Latest operation return code: Unknown
Latest operation start time: Unknown
Number of successes: 875
Number of failures: 0
Operation time to live: 2636 sec

Then I turned back up the interface on R5:

R5(config-if)#no shut

And R4 showed success again:

R4#sho ip sla statistics

Round Trip Time (RTT) for Index 1
        Latest RTT: 17 milliseconds
Latest operation start time: *16:50:09.495 UTC Sat Jun 30 2007
Latest operation return code: OK
Number of successes: 890
Number of failures: 0
Operation time to live: 2546 sec

Then, tied it to a track:

R4(config)#track 1 rtr 1 state
R4(config-track)#do sho track 1
Track 1
  Response Time Reporter 1 state
  State is Up
    6 changes, last change 00:00:09
  Latest operation return code: OK
  Latest RTT (millisecs) 16

Here's a command reference page for it in 12.3T, didn't see it in 12.4
for some reason:

Subject: IP SLA Frame-Relay

Hello group,

I'm having problems with IP SLA Type Frame-Relay operations. I have
these
configs:

Sender Router:
++++++++++++++
!
ip sla monitor 1
 type frame-Relay interface Serial1/0 dlci 101 timeout 5 frequency 1
ip sla monitor schedule 1 life forever start-time now !
track 1 rtr 1
!

Receiver Router:
++++++++++++++++
!
rtr responder
!

There are no problems with the frame-relay connection between the
routers.
And all i get in the sender router is:

Rack12R6#sh track 1
Track 1
  Response Time Reporter 1 state
  State is Down
    3 changes, last change 00:07:37
  Latest operation return code: Unknown
  Tracked by:
    HSRP FastEthernet0/0.263 0
Rack12R6#

And i don't find this feature documented anywhere even in the 12.4T
command reference.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Antonio
