It's not a CP/CMS command.  It has to be mailed to LISTSERV or issued
while LISTSERV is running in the console.  TELL LISTSERV NODESGEN would
probably work also.  WTONLY means "just rebuild the links weights tables"
and isn't germane at this point.

This is not good.  You should be getting updates from us.  I will check
with Eric.

Yes, they were just updated recently.  Again, let me check with Eric
to see why you aren't getting these automatically.
