We were thinking of adding this to our automated dns scripts ... but if nobody actually uses them, we don't want to spend time on it ...

use LOC (rfc1876) instead. it's more or less the same, but with more info.

Thanks for the pointer, then my next question will be ... Are any registering LOC for their routers/hosts ? Any visual traceroute or similar applications using this ?

Several, including a new tool from the caida folks. LOCs are good stuff. --bill bill means: www.caida.org/Tools/GTrace/ (uses visualroute maps w permission) presented at Usenix last week http://www.usenix.org/events/lisa99/index.html uses NetGeo www.caida.org/Tools/NetGeo/ still not optimal, but headed in the right direction k
