When a one-way relationship already exists from A to B, the module refuses a second one-way relationship of the same type from B to A. This should be allowed, e.g. when defining a 'subscription' relationship:
A can subscribe to B's content,
B can subscribe to A's content,
but they should still be regarded as two independent one-way relationships. The module does a 'between' check when establishing the second, reciprocal relationship, which is too strict. I've included a patch in attachment.

Cheers,
Bart.

Sorry but I can't apply the patch as is, because it will alter the default behavior. It would need an admin side switch to turn on and off.

Sorry for pinging the participants.

Now that Drupal 7 is out, there is no support for Drupal 5 and the corresponding modules anymore. Therefore, I'm closing all old issues which are still open.

I suggest you upgrade to Drupal 6 or 7 and figure out if you're feature is still needed or the bug still exists and open a new issue in that case.
