OK A5RTR it is then. And, yes of course it can have a name, what I suppose I
meant was that there isn't much point giving it a name as no one will ever
need to use the name for anything, except perhaps to identify its purpose.

Doh! The results of not reading all mails in the inbox before updating...
As long as we're at it, how about calling it A5RTR, to match the pattern
used
in other areas?

5.99 can't have a name because it is only a DECnet router and
nothing else
Everybody else can know its name, even if it's not smart enough to
know
its
own name :-)
If you want a name anyway let's call it A4ROUT.
If it's A4ROUT (as in area 4 router?) how come it's in area 5?
Just wondering...

The number of areas and machines online is looking pretty impressive

What do you mean "can't have a hostname"? Of course it can. It has a node number, right? A node name is just a more convenient way to refer to a node number.
A4ROUT it is then...
