The fa0/0 of R5 is also fa0/0 of R3, both sitting on the same ethernet network
with ISDN circuit suppose to be "backup."

I think this question is just a little bit messy in the wording :P
But, since we like challenges however..
The dialer-watch idea I think is shot down upon realization that both routers
share the same connected network.
How about running OSPF w/ demand circuit in between, in a totally seperate
process and its own area 0 accross the ISDN, so that topology changes on the
primary ospf network in R3 won't trigger the ISDN activation. But FA0/0
outage on R5 would, which would then cause CLNS to establish adjacency..?
Thanks again!
