- PASTEUR is a Data General machine running AOS/VS and using the ASCII character set. It doesn't know how to spell 'Net Data', but it took less than 30 minutes to add a smallish C program to that HAMLET thing to scan the Netdata header for the 'destination userid' field. Then we pulled one of these programs that decode Netdata text files, skipping all the header stuff it doesn't understand, or maybe we wrote one of our own, I can't remember (actually 'we' means a friend of mine writing the code, and me having to send test files every 15 minutes :-) ). - The default LISTSERV chooses should be compatible with what is being done now. Having the NAD select a default for his node is not easy, given the fact that we're talking about N servers; think about what happens to a new server that just got installed and has, somehow, to get from someone the accumulated info about all the chosen defaults for all the nodes. It's a lot of work, and prone to break. Eric
