The file UPD20120726.164205.DOC contained 4 pages of stuff (your 
previous e-mail had about 1/2 page of it) showing all sorts of copies 
etc etc incl CHANGE.DOC of RFLAG (more than once).  You have run 
successfully the MNJ you needed.  Do not run another until you get here 
since it will be large.  (I am assuming that that DOC file was for the 
computer that you wanted updated of course.)

Check the date on $LOAD/RFLAG.EXE = $TST/$ARCH/LOAD/RFLAG.EXE to see if 
it is July 25 or 26.

I don't know why things failed when you ran 7 hours later on 7/26 (the 
.231148 UT ones).  And the dns failure is odd - except such things seem 
to happen a little and it usually goes away the next day.
