Dear all, Here is the hostcount for February 1997. The table shows an increase since last month of almost 1,300,000 (or 3.2%) to a total of over 4000,000 hosts in the DNS in Europe (Yes, we hit the 4 Million!). The UK shows the highest increase for February with almost 18,000 hosts more than in January. 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 All this data can also be found at http://www.ripe.net/statistics/hostcount.html If you are intersted in the historic hostcount data, bunyip Information Services is hosting the complete set of data since 1994 under ftp://ftp.bunyip.com/pub/netstats/ripe I would like to thank all people who help me to create the hostcount every month by counting hosts locally: at Gerhard Winkler <winkler(a)cc.univie.ac.at> be Herman Moons <Herman.Moons(a)CS.kuleuven.ac.be> ch Marcel Schneider <hostmaster(a)nic.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 Annie Renard <Annie.Renard(a)inria.fr> gr Dimitris Zisiadis <zisiadis(a)forthnet.gr> hr Ivan Maric <Ivan.Maric(a)stribor.srce.hr> hu Gabor Kiss <kissg(a)sztaki.hu> 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> pl Irek Neska <irek(a)nask.pl> pt Armando Domingues <fccn(a)dns.pt> ru Andrey Dobrotsvetov <adbr(a)ripn.net> sk Ivan Lescak <Ivan.Lescak(a)Slovakia.EU.net> Lubos Elias <Lubos.Elias(a)uakom.sk> sm Antonio_Blasco Bonito <bonito(a)nis.garr.it> tr Yener Yigit <yener(a)knidos.cc.metu.edu.tr> uk Kevin Hoadley <K.Hoadley(a)nosc.ja.net> Robert Stone <robert(a)nosc.ja.net> If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Employment Opportunities at London Internet Exchange (LINX)
by Keith Mitchell 10 Feb '97

10 Feb '97

The London Internet Exchange (www.linx.net) is a not-for-profit association representing the 30 largest Internet Service Providers in the UK. It provides and manages the UK National Internet Exchange point, at which its members exchange over 90% of UK inter-provider Internet traffic between them. Founded in Oct 1994, the LINX is in the process of evolving from a voluntary organisation to a professionally managed, independent, national resource. The first stage of this was the recruitment of a full-time Executive Chairman in June 1996. The next step is the establishment of office premises and recruitment of an additional 3 full-time staff. The LINX exchange facility is located at Telehouse, in London Docklands. The LINX office where staff will be based is planned to be located in central Peterborough (Cambridgeshire), with a provisional opening date in early April. Staff are sought to commence as close as possible to this date. Because of the need and scope for flexibility in a small and new organisation, 2 of the 3 staff positions are defined as a total of 4 roles. Depending on the candidate, these positions could comprise a different combination of these roles. The ability of candidates to help with the establishment of the office by changing roles in future, and/or telecommuting before it opens, is an important advantage. Candidates are sought for the following roles: - Network Engineer (full-time) - Administrator (full-time) - Marketing Communications - Sales Support - Bookkeeper Applications Further details of the above positions can be found at: http://www.linx.net/vacancies.html Applicants with questions or seeking further information may contact the LINX Chairman, Keith Mitchell at: Email: <keith(a)linx.org> Phone: +44 7000 783797 or: +44 1780 480850 Fax: +44 7000 783798 Applications should include a full CV, and should be sent by *post only* to: The London Internet Exchange PO Box 51 Stamford Lincs PE9 2WF England, UK to arrive no later than Fri 28th Feb.

Hostcount for January 1997
by Mirjam Kuehne 10 Feb '97

10 Feb '97

Dear all, Here is the first hostcount for 1997! The table shows an increase since last month of almost 250,000 (or 6.7%) to a total of over 3,900,000 hosts in the DNS in Europe. DE shows the highest increase in January with more than 50,000 hosts more than in December. There were apparently many private addresses registered in the DNS recently. I expect this will be balanced again in the next months. Furthermore I'm afraid this is not a country specific problem :-( In some countries (for instance in Denmark) the rules for registering domain names have been changed. This caused a significant increase in second level domains where the growth in number of hosts was stable. 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 All this data can also be found at http://www.ripe.net/statistics/hostcount.html I would like to thank all people who help me to create the hostcount every month by counting hosts locally: at Gerhard Winkler <winkler(a)cc.univie.ac.at> be Herman Moons <Herman.Moons(a)CS.kuleuven.ac.be> ch Marcel Schneider <hostmaster(a)nic.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 Annie Renard <Annie.Renard(a)inria.fr> gr Dimitris Zisiadis <zisiadis(a)forthnet.gr> hr Ivan Maric <Ivan.Maric(a)stribor.srce.hr> hu Gabor Kiss <kissg(a)sztaki.hu> 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> pl Irek Neska <irek(a)nask.pl> pt Armando Domingues <fccn(a)dns.pt> ru Andrey Dobrotsvetov <adbr(a)ripn.net> sk Ivan Lescak <Ivan.Lescak(a)Slovakia.EU.net> Lubos Elias <Lubos.Elias(a)uakom.sk> sm Antonio_Blasco Bonito <bonito(a)nis.garr.it> tr Yener Yigit <yener(a)knidos.cc.metu.edu.tr> uk Kevin Hoadley <K.Hoadley(a)nosc.ja.net> Robert Stone <robert(a)nosc.ja.net> If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.
