To do this, even *with* a nodelist is going to require working with you *local* net. *They* are the folks who will be assigning your node number. So I'd suggest that you start calling the local *Fidonet* systems. One of them will be able to provide you with a nodelist. They'll also be able to provide you with a copy of your net's Policy. To get a node number, you have to have read and agreed to the Current policies of Fidonet *and* of your local net. I keep emphasizing *local*, because unlike Usenet, Fidonet is organized *geographically*. Your net is determined by where you are. -- Leonard Erickson leonard@qiclab.scn.rain.com CIS: [70465,203] 70465.203@compuserve.com FIDO: 1:105/51 Leonard.Erickson@f51.n105.z1.fidonet.org (The CIS & Fido addresses are preferred)
