The problem I had with one of my upstreams' handling of no-export has been resolved. They were, you'll be happy to hear, full of desire to do the right thing (and had apparently been doing it until the syntax for doing so changed out from under them, so clearly you can't turn your back on those router vendors) and the ticket was closed. So, yes, my assertion that no-export support was not built-in was wrong. Mea culpa. Stephen
