I think they were different but that's normal, isn't it? The Hello timer for Ethernet is 10 seconds. For non-broadcast networks it's 30 seconds. The Frame Relay cloud was configured as point-to-point links. The Ethernet routers formed an adjacency. The FR routers formed adjacencies. The Ethernet routers simply failed to tell the FR side about the Ethernet LAN!! This was a remote lab that I only used for a few hours and now I'm not on it anymore. I will get back in soon and do some more research. Thanks for everyone's suggestions.
