Looks like Mark has run into a few snags with his registrar for the hecnet.eu domain, but nothing fatal and it should get straightened out in a few days. In the meantime I noticed that the decnet.org domain was also available - seemed like a shame to just leave it lying around for anyone to get, so I registered that one. I don't know if I'll actually end up doing anything with it or if I'll just give it up in a year, but in the meantime it's available for any good use we can think of. If your machine is directly connected to the Internet and you want a third level DNS record for "node.decnet.org", send me an email with the name and IP and/or FQDN and I'll add an A or CNAME record as you like. AFAIK my ISP doesn't have any official limit on the number of DNS records that they'll permit per domain, so we can test that policy :-) It'd be nice if all the various documents and status displays associated with HECnet were all accessible from a single web page, but I have absolutely zero desire to be a webmaster. If somebody wants to volunteer to host a web page for HECnet let me know and I'll be happy to point the www.decnet.org entry that way. You don't have to actually host all the various documents and scripts, of course - just maintain a page with links to them. Bob
