Hmm... I ran showold.pl and found this in my report


+------------------+--------+-----------+-----------+-----------+

Now I don't have the .1 set up at 21:1/100 and had this in my route file (I
now think incorrectly)

route crash noroute 21:1/190.*

Based on your suggestion I now think I need to set nodes up like this

route crash noroute 21:1/190
route crash 21:1/190 21:1/190.*

Does that seem right?

Can I then rerun a process to reroute the point netmail to 1/190

Best, Paul
