For example, I am interested in 156. Did you mean node number 156 (in a particular area)? Area numbers can't go higher than 63. --Marc Hello! Actually I was not aware of that fact. For example I am aware that someone does have 51 assigned to them, at one point. ----- Gregg C Levine gregg.drwho8 at gmail.com "This signature fought the Time Wars, time and again." Gregg, I have sent you the HECnet area list. If someone is on HECnet, or just logged into Mim (telnet to Mim.Update.UU.SE, and login with guest/guest), you can check areas and nodenames at: MIM::US:[DECNET]DECNET.TXT (areas) MIM::US:[DECNET]NODENAMES.ALL (nodenames) And as others mentioned, areas only go from 1 to 63, while node numbers within one area go from 1 to 1023. And there is no special algorithm for assigning area numbers. If you think you want one, and it's free, just let me know.
