"In my setup I saw that so long as I had the 200.0.0.4 address on the R4 loopback that the 200.0.0.0/24 refused to propagate. it did not show up in the R4 table. " it has to be in your R4 routing table as a directly connected subnet. I suppose what you mean is that it doesn't show up as either a ospf or rip dynamic route. every router should send an update that its in their routing table, but because of administrative distances, the directly connected one always wins with a 0 distance. if he's getting something dynamically sent, I'd say he either didn't put the address/mask correctly on r4 or he changed administrative distances.
