Yes. Thanks. I was mistakenly thought that there is a way your could redistribute the default route to eigrp neighbors without using the redistribute static command. Wasted half an hour playing around with all the options until...nothing. A search on CCO shows this link which stated:"EIGRP propagates a route to network 0.0.0.0, but the static route must be redistributed into EIGRP" http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/tech/tk365/tk554/technologies_tech_note09186a0080094374.shtml
