I can think of two reason why it wouldn't work. 1. Because you're using bridging on the frame relay links, it must adhere to the spanning tree rules. This means that you cannot send traffic out the same interface you receive it on. In this configuration it would mean that information received on a DLCI it would not be able to be forwarded out any of the other DLCIs because they are on the same physical interface 2. You're using "frame map bridge" statements which disables inverse arp. You have to add static "frame map ip" statements for all the layer 3 addresses. This wouldn't explain why it works when the DLCIs are on different layer 3 networks though.

[7:16635]) [7:16711] No one has gotten this problem yet. Remeber, making it so the clients are on differnt layer 3 networks works, but when they are on the same it doesn't. What mechanics are involved in how the packet will be treated different if on the same network vs. different networks. I'll still leave the answer open, someone will get this.
