Well, if you don't register, you have the tables that came with your installation kit. You either have to register to get them sent automatically or you have to update them by hand (you can get BITEARN NODES from our FTP site and the rest of the files via GET from LISTSERV.NET). This has been discussed (I think) several times on LSTSRV-L. Some files are updated on something like a monthly basis while others are more frequent. Nathan
