[HECnet] New attempt at HECNET PHONE directory

Sorry about that, tried to bring it back on topic once I got onto RHESUS. Just thought I'd give a reason for being slow and then it sorta spiralled out of control.. sampsa <sampsa at mac.com> mobile +961 788 10537 On 22 Feb 2013, at 22:51, Johnny Billquist <bqt at softjar.se> wrote: Guys... This is getting *way* offtopic. This list is about *hecnet* in particular, DECnet more generally, and I can buy talk about various old computers (preferrably from DEC), but seriously? The political situation in Beirut? Please think twice before posting to hecnet in the future. Not everyone needs this much ot stuff in their mailbox.

Sorry about that." I love this place, it's like a fucking Vietnam movie meets Southern France. sampsa On 22 Feb 2013, at 16:34, Gregg Levine <gregg.drwho8 at gmail.com> wrote: On Fri, Feb 22, 2013 at 9:31 AM, Sampsa Laine <sampsa at mac.com> wrote: If you call half a dozen APCs with 50 cals and about a hundred soldiers closing a roundabout making late for Arabic class interesting, then yes. Cab drivers just swearing, I ask him watch going on, he says he has no idea, then I see the giant flags of Bachir Gemayel. Turns out March 14 or LF (the people I hang with were out marching). The army was there to stop out of control Shia youths petrol bombing a Church or something ,thus starting Civil War - Round 49. sampsa On 22 Feb 2013, at 15:41, hvlems at zonnet.nl wrote: Sampsa, somehow I get the idea you lead a very interesting and exciting life :-) -----Original Message----- From: Sampsa Laine <sampsa at mac.com> Sender: owner-hecnet at Update.UU.SE Date: Fri, 22 Feb 2013 15:36:44 To: <hecnet at Update.UU.SE> Reply-To: hecnet at Update.UU.SESubject: Re: [HECnet] New attempt at HECNET PHONE directory Will do.

So I took this code, ran it against a bunch of my hosts and ran it, and it works fine. The output is in RHESUS::[.PHONEDIR]HECNETDIR.TXT This service is opt-in: if you want you system listed in the phone directory, let me know and I'll add it to the script. Currently it only covers areas 8 and 47. PS: Johnny, as we're not touching area 1, you shouldn't be getting those log messages I hope.. sampsa Hello! About the protest I arranged that. Along with almost everything else. Except why you find yourself inside that sort of place. ----- Gregg C Levine gregg.drwho8 at gmail.com "This signature fought the Time Wars, time and again."
