We could, for example, give all the machines that have TCP/IP connectivity name.decnet.org aliases. Or we could set up mail forwarding for somebody at decnet.org <mailto:somebody at decnet.org>. Or we could have a web page at www.decnet.org <http://www.decnet.org>. Or maybe somebody can think of something else. I m also willing to transfer the name if somebody can promise to put it to good use. I don t want any money for it, but I would like to see it get used. Bob Great idea! Why not use it for connectivity to the outside world from HECnet? There could be a gateway which translates the names and - if needed - DECnet to TCP/IP and vice versa. DEC used to have an alias domain (enet.dec.com) for the internal machines so that they could connect to hosts outside the internal network. Kari
