Are you sure that sure that each of your "transport" and "route"
declarations are in the correct sections of the config file?  Make sure
that your router configuration ONLY comes after the the line 
"begin routers" and that your transport config only comes after the line 
"begin transports".  The config file is not randomly parsed.  There are
definite discrete sections that need to be observed.  It looks as if you
have put your router definition in the transport section.
