I would think setting of the NodeDescription in this manner would need to be done optionally, via a module parameter, with the default being off. Quite some time ago we had the discussion about it being a system admin policy/possible security issue to reveal or not reveal the hostname via similar mechanisms. For a similar reason, this capability was removed from ICMP. -- Hal > > > > John Russo > > > > __________________________ > John F.
