The mumps.gld is not the same as a mumps.dat file. As I understand it, it is more like a configuration file describing the location of the dat file, the lengths of the records, etc., the things that we set when GTM is set up initially. I think the GDE (global directory editor) program edits that file and MUPIP does something with it too, I think, when mupip create is run. You can read about the GDE in the Admin and Operations Guide.
Bhaskar probably went to bed about an hour ago, like I should have, so he can probably enlighten you more in the morning about what it is likely that you need to do to straighten this out, but in the meantime, maybe you can take a look at the guide. I am going to email you a copy of it that is the same as one on sourceforge but the chapters are assembled into one document so it is easier to search that having each chapter separately.
