Thanks for that Jon. I tried dropping to 5 and 10, instead of 1 and 2 
also swapped to real machines rather than vms, and am still getting odd 
behaviour. I removed a link, added it back in, and now although traffic 
is being passed, one interface is sticking in the EXSTA/OTHER state:

Any other ideas? Could it be that the relationship between router-dead 
time and hello-interval is wrong? The default is 4 to 1, I've changed to 
2 to 1, could that be a problem?

Thanks,


Cliff.
