Miss understood my question Peter although you answered it in the last 
sentence.

3 nodeLIST.xxx files were in my nodelist directory, OT chose to use the oldest 
one, as it happened that caused a not known in nodelist.xxx message, at first 
glance I thought it was correct till I checked and found that the message was 
incorrect, then I noticed the nodelist number OT used, checking the two newer 
nodelists showed that the node number in question had been added 2 weeks ago.

I know it is unusual to have new nodes show up these days, but that's what 
happened..

Best Rgds, Bazz
