I found some DCL code on Deathrow's "Hack VMS FAQ" that outputs a nicely formatted listing of PHONE DIR. So I took this code, ran it against a bunch of my hosts and ran it, and it works fine. The output is in RHESUS::[.PHONEDIR]HECNETDIR.TXT This service is opt-in: if you want you system listed in the phone directory, let me know and I'll add it to the script. Currently it only covers areas 8 and 47. PS: Johnny, as we're not touching area 1, you shouldn't be getting those log messages I hope.. sampsa
