Hmmm   . LEGATO can   t talk to ROOSTA (   remote node not currently

yes, the link is UP and working).

I think the problem is that ROOSTA is in area 6, and the area router for
6 is STAR69. Trouble is, STAR69 doesn   t have a path to ROOSTA and
doesn   t know how to send it packets.

Unless ROOSTA is an area router, that link makes no sense. You cannot have (usable) links between different areas unless both ends are area routers...
