There is a small correction, we used 172.16.0.0/12 networks on the serial
interfaces, i think you figured that out anyways. The other is not in
RFC1918 :).

I don't understand this comment:

Then why would pinging the serial interfaces on each router (R2+) work even
though 172.16.0.0 is directly connected via s0/0 and s0/1?.
I am just not understanding why the 10 network would not work, yet the
172.16 network would.  Why would I not get updates from 10.0.2.1 and the
others?  I have three interfaces directly connected on each router (except
for the first and last see below). I should be getting updates from both
networks, shouldn't I?

 |----| S0/0 172.16.1.1    |----| S0/0 172.16.2.1      |----|
 | R1 |--------------------| R2 |---------------------| R3 |--etc...
 |----|    172.16.1.2 S0/1 |----|      172.16.2.2 S0/1 |----|
    | F0/0 10.0.1.1               | F0/0 10.0.2.1                 | F0/0
10.0.3.1
    |                                     |
|
    |                                     |
|
10.0.1.2                       10.0.2.2                            10.0.3.2

I have tried this on RouterSim and it worked fine.
