I have three serial ports, each a T1 link, that are showing up/up.
I've bundled the three into a single multilink interface.  The
multilink is showing down/down.  Debugging ppp authentication doens't
show any problems.  "show ppp multilink" shows no active bundles, and
all three serial links are listed as inactive, along with the
multilink.

Looking at each serial port, each is showing "Encapsulation PPP, LCP
Open, multilink closed".  I've double-checked each serial ports
multilink group settings, and they match the multilink interfaces
group number.

I can post the config, but it's very basic, with no fancy tricks.
It's a very simple Internet-facing router, w/o any routing protocols,
only a single default route, and no access lists applied anywhere.

I'd appreciate any ideas on this.  Thanks.

Yeah, we'd probably need to see the config. It should be real
simple. It doesn't take much to do this sort of setup. 
I'm guessing that you don't tag each T1 interface as 'ppp multilink'
to have each PPP link in its PPP startup to start doing multilink negotiation.

This is from a working config. 

int Multilink1
 ip address ...
 ppp multilink
 ppp multilink group 1
int Serial 1/0/1:0
 encaps ppp
 ppp multilink
 ppp multilink group 1
int Serial 1/0/2:0
 encaps ppp
 ppp multilink
 ppp multilink group 1
int Serial 1/0/3:0
 encaps ppp
 ppp multilink
 ppp multilink group 1

Nope, that was the first thing I tried.

Turns out our ISP (Sprint) never turned on multilink on their side.
Link came up very quickly once they did.  Thanks for the help, all.

"Oh! you wanted to use that circuit? OK one sec..."

Is that how the call went?

They had the circuits turned up, but not bundled.  For once, I had a

trying to push it back on me or the LEC.  Very quick turn-around, and
I was up in 15 minutes.
