Area 42 is down at the moment - maybe up this weekend though - I just acquired my first PDP11 so I'll be experimenting with it this weekend (a long weekend in Canada). 

Any suggestions on what to run on a PDP11/73?

Area 42 is in Kelowna, BC, Canada.   The router is CANADA::

I have cleaned up (reduced) links on nodes SG1::, FRUGAL::, and
GORVAX::.   Hopefully this will help out.

In the meantime, maybe we could ask members to check-in with their area,
name, and location.   That would help me figure out what is going on at
this end.   It may help others as well.

I'll start!

Johnny,

Please send out the latest copy of the AREA list to the 
reflector.   It 
would be nice to know what is real about areas, locations, 
and "owner".

I have currently area 7 and 8 disabled on my bridge, just 
FYI. Seems to have at least stabilized things on my side.

Routing loops are bad. However, DECnet should normally be 
able to resolve this, and get things right, as from a 
topology point of view, DECnet can have multiple paths 
between nodes. Something is wrong, indeed...

The current list of the areas are on MIM::, which is shut 
down at the moment, because of the issues with the computer 
hall. I hope to have the machine back up and running soon...

Since GORVAX have an alternative connection, I'll keep it off 
at my end for now, for trouble shooting. As things looks 
stable right now, it will be interesting to turn area 7 back 
on and see what happens. Hold on to your hats...

    Johnny
