NU2.COM uses nodename.dat.

I assume that is because you have nodename information locally that is
not known at MIM, in which case yes, you might get burned.
I try to register all my node name/number allocations with BQT, seems
like the sensible thing to do, have them in a central database
somewhere.
As far as I'm concerned, MIM has the canonical (and most up-to-date)
node database of HECnet. Is this assumption correct?
