Thanks George.  I was like 'oopsie' when I saw it. :)
So in this case R2 is an ASBR since it connects to
external net.  That explains why you used
summary-address.  Now that you got me thinking, I've
one question involving GRE (expanding upon Tim's
topology a bit).
R4  (area 2)  R1 (nssa area 1)  R2  (area 0)  R3
We have a disconnected area 2 separated by nssa.  In
this case, you'd need to create a GRE tunnel. When I
last try to lab it out, I'd recursive route problem
when I used ip unnumber.
a) How do I avoid recurvise route?
b) Replace area 2 with area 0.  Do you still configure
the tunnel the same way?
TIA,
Sila
