Maybe this is not directly related to this discussion here but: I have experienced many times on how I cannot ping the directly connected serial intf. to the cust. side and vice-versa but an extended ping sourcing the ethernet work to like yahoo.com etc. Typing the command: #no ip route-cache....has worked!!
In addition to this, if you connecting to your ISP router and the ISP not redistributing the /30 serial ip, then also, you might not be able to ping the other side but once again a passive-interface under the IGP (IS-IS in this case) on the ISP router will work...(as the IGP is being redistributed via BGP)...
