Dear all, Here is the hostcount for March 1995. The table shows an increase since last month of over 128,000 (or 10.7%) to a total of almost 1,390,000 hosts in the DNS in Europe. This comes to a total increase of 22.11% during the last three month. The german domain shows again a big increase. The zone I have mentioned last month gives still the same result. This time all 65,000 A RR's are counted since the new version of the host command allows an unlimited amount of hosts per zone (not limited to 25,000 hosts per zone anymore). This gives a real increase of over 18,000 machines (A RR's) in the DE domain (the remaining 40,000 existed last month already but were not counted). The hostcount can also be found under ftp.ripe.net/ripe/hostcount.
