Brian,

What could have happened is that a network statement for area 0 was
entered by mistake and then removed and the router hasn't completely
"forgotten" about it. You can try "clear ip ospf process" or failing
that a reload in order of relative disruption.
Cheers,
Marcus.

Marcus, that seems to be the case:

marshall-gw#show ip ospf data

       OSPF Router with ID (207.254.193.52) (Process ID 10)

                Router Link States (Area 0)

Link ID ADV Router Age Seq# Checksum Link
count
207.254.193.52 207.254.193.52 575 0x80000001 0xF8BE 0

                Router Link States (Area 10)

Link ID ADV Router Age Seq# Checksum Link
count
207.254.193.52 207.254.193.52 546 0x8000000B 0xE618 5
207.254.193.53 207.254.193.53 547 0x8000000A 0xFAD6 4

the NSSA ASBR is 207.254.193.52, and it thinks its in area 0 and 10, but

its an NSSA in area 10. There is nothing in the config to account for
this.

router ospf 10
 area 10 nssa
 redistribute connected subnets
 redistribute static subnets
 redistribute rip subnets
 passive-interface FastEthernet0/0
 passive-interface Serial1/0
 network 207.254.193.176 0.0.0.3 area 10
 network 207.254.193.180 0.0.0.3 area 10
 network 208.242.79.0 0.0.0.15 area 10
