Forgive me for being short of brain cells but where does the -dDPORT=xxxx command actually go in? -- Mark Benson http://markbenson.org/blog http://twitter.com/MDBenson

Area 54

by HECNET＠beyondthepale.ie

I can say nothing for Italian network, but for Croatian I can assure you it's Slovenian, does not use area 54 and can be squeezed to any area with ten or twenty unoccupied addresses. Hi Rok, Apologies - I should have taken more careful note of your correction before I posted. I've even been to Ljubljana several years ago and I have some idea of issues in the region. All I can say by way of excuse is that email is an excellent tool for putting ones foot in ones mouth :-( Regards, Peter Coghlan.

And since it seems area 3 is about to cleared up, you can keep using that, and have all 1023 addresses to play with, without any problems. Let me know if you need more... :-) Johnny

Area 54

by HECNET＠beyondthepale.ie

I'd say that you can probably take area 54. I should check with Tore, if he's still around, but since it hasn't been used in all this time, odds are that you are free to go. I knew Tore from the cctech list. In fact I gave him a Vaxstation 3100 which once lived in area 54 - maybe that's why he asked for that area :-) I haven't seen any communication from Tore for a long time now. Perhaps he has lost interest and moved on to other things? Is there anyone in the Italian or Croatian networks using area 54 at the moment? I don't want to cause any difficulties if these networks become connected to HECnet. On the subject of connecting to HECnet, would anyone be interested in being the other end of a Multinet link to my network? I have a fixed ip address which is up all the time and at least two of my DECnet capable machines are running all the time. I think I have all the needed bits and pieces of software and licenses. Sounds like we should be able to get you up and running in no time. Great stuff - thanks. Regards, Peter Coghlan.

That is up to you to decide upon. I have no opinion. :-) Johnny
