The above lines are then followed by the usual "r" and "s" lines, but oddly enough, no "opt" lines. Usually I see three lines (one of each of the above) for each router. However, looking for that IP address (212.227.86.59) in this section, I find not "s15192785", but "abutor": r abutor GgmZwFriuaPPR0B38GBg6Rs6hHs 4Oj8zvA0SAIoRuEI2y9MsGYsBk4 2008-03-28 21:07:43 212.227.86.59 9001 9030 s Authority Fast Stable Running Valid V2Dir Notice the "Authority" flag in the "r" line above. This flag does not appear for this router in any of the other four cached-status files. So how do I block this bogus cached-status file and its illegitimate "Authority" flag for a screwed up router with bad contact information? Scott Bennett, Comm.
