Ok. I had concentrated on your gdcross question because you said you couldn't 
use 
Garp in the field.

This is strange since the Garp_defaults file I sent you had gfs003 as the 
default
model key,so I'm not sure why it is going to the thinned GFS- unless the 
default mode
is listed as gfs and not gfs003 ( I checked the attachment I sent you though 
and it
was gfs003). I can send it to you again, or you can send me yours- Or I can log 
in
if you would provide me with that access.

Did you try using the Linux Binary I provided? I know you built locally, but 
wasn't sure if you tried my binary first. I'm not seeing your gdcross
problem here. Can you send your run of gdcross by hand with your CXSTNS input
so I can see the history of the input and the error messages you got?

Did you try running "cleanup -c" to clear message queues and gplt processed out?
