5.99 can't have a name because it is only a DECnet router and nothing else,
you can't SET HOST to it, DIR it or anything like that. If you want a name
anyway let's call it A4ROUT.

What do you mean "can't have a hostname"? Of course it can. It has a node number, right? A node name is just a more convenient way to refer to a node number.

A4ROUT it is then...

Please add this machine to the nodelist:

7.72	BITXOM	(SIMH PDP11, RSX11M 4.8)

Done.

And, by the way, I don't have the node name for 5.99, neither it is in
MIM::

I know. I've tried poking Rob about that, but don't have a name for it...

The number of areas and machines online is looking pretty impressive
nowadays, though. Nice!
