Well, you have something intriguing here. I don't think what Tom was thinking of was the same as what you're thinking of. I think Tom was talking about having the host system be 'system.foo.com' and the bbs being 'bbs.foo.com', to each other and the external world. What you have is a way of giving them both the same name but doing some handwaving behind the curtain to give them different names to Waffle. -- John Hood Cthulhu-- just imagine it! jhood@smoke.marlboro.vt.us Duke U, 1980: "Okay, so a few systems have the net started.
