Won't he also need to redistribute the static route on router b into OSPF, so that the rest of the OSPF area learns the route?

Router B knows how to route packets into its OSPF domain, so that won't be a problem, but have you considered the replies from the OSPF side going back to Router A? You'll need a static route on Router B pointing back the other way, and then it should all work fine. _______________________________ Priscilla Oppenheimer www.troubleshootingnetworks.com www.priscilla.com > Since ive got a static route pointing > to b, i guess that B will do a lookup on the destination and route as > persay.
