Hi Tim,
   I get the same result with “dndir 1.1.::” - is MAGICA down? I have no problems accessing MIM (1.13).

What output do you get from “dneigh” - that should display your local system address and designated router, here’s mine:

41.250 is 4CAST::, my router running pyDECnet.

What does it mean for nodes to be displayed in that list?  For example, 28NH isn't connected by Ethernet (it is an endnode with a DDCMP link).  So it isn't a neighbor and that hardware address isn't meaningful.
