Due to the definition of a virtual route between DEARN and CUNYVMV2, the present version of LINKSWT FILE appears to give d(DEARN,BITNIC)=1. This also caused GENROUTS to route all US traffic via the volume-charged german lines. The weirdest part of the story is that MY LISTSERV gave a correct value (89 I think) because I had made the change in advance, but for some reason it appears that I didn't distribute it. Must have something to do with the fact that CERNVM was unavaible last weekend and thus I couldn't logon to [log in to unmask] Anyway, a new version of LINKSWT FILE + PEERS NAMES is on its way. Eric
