Hostcount for December 1995
by Mirjam Kuehne 04 Jan '96

04 Jan '96

Dear all, Please find below the last hostcount for 1995. The table shows an increase since November of almost 200,000 (or 10.0%) to a total of over 2,200,000 hosts in the DNS in Europe. We have not only hit but hurtled past the 2 Million boundary :-) We have a new champion: FI shows the highest increase with over 70,000 hosts more than in November. Certain zones this time have shown a decline in numbers were previously their numbers were seen to increase. This could be due to server neglect :) over Christmas. The hostcount can also be found under ftp://ftp.ripe.net/ripe/hostcount/ The graphical version of the hostcount can be found at ftp://ftp.ripe.net/ripe/hostcount/RIPE-Hostcount-{Mo,Qu}.eps The translation of the country codes can be found at ftp://ftp.ripe.net/iso3166-countrycodes I would like to thank all people who help me to create the hostcount every month by counting hosts locally: at Gerhard Winkler <Gerhard.Winkler(a)univie.ac.at> be Herman Moons <Herman.Moons(a)CS.kuleuven.ac.be> ch Christoph Graf <graf(a)chx400.switch.ch> cy Panagiotis Tzounakis <pj(a)ics.forth.gr> cz Jiri Orsag <Jiri.Orsag(a)eunet.cz> de Peter Koch <pk(a)TechFak.Uni-Bielefeld.DE> dk Robert Martin-Legene <robert(a)dknet.dk> es Jose Sanchez-Seco <jose.sanchez(a)rediris.es> fi Petri Ojala <ojala(a)eunet.fi> fr Benoit Grange <grange(a)sagres.inria.fr> gr Dimitris Zisiadis <zisiadis(a)forthnet.gr> hr Ivan Maric <Ivan.Maric(a)stribor.srce.hr> ie Mike Norris <mnorris(a)dalkey.hea.ie> il Sason Levi <sason(a)NetVision.net.il> it Antonio_Blasco Bonito <bonito(a)nis.garr.it> no Havard Eidnes <Havard.Eidnes(a)runit.sintef.no> pt Graca Carvalho <fccn(a)dns.pt> ru Andrey Dobrotsvetov <adbr(a)argo.net.kiae.su> sk Ivan Lescak <Ivan.Lescak(a)Slovakia.EU.net> Lubos Elias <Lubos.Elias(a)uakom.sk> tr Yener Yigit <yener(a)knidos.cc.metu.edu.tr> uk JANET NOSC <nosc(a)nosc.ja.net> If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.
