can you paste the configs of your routers and your frame relay router on here?

Just a couple of things worth checking, is the line protocol up on serial 0? if not confirm you have set the distant router to encap Frame-relay

The Frame relay switch should be configured as the DCE and use the command clock rate 64000
the example they give there uses 4 time routers with two as frame switches, its easier to start with one central router here a good site which has an example

you need to get that other dlci active before you even try to get it working.
