 Please find below the RIPE Domain Name System hostcount for November 1992.
Also included again are the totals found for every hostcount done since the
start of all this.

- Hungary (HU) went down a little due to connectivity problems

- Portugal (PT) is a bit more serious, since not one machine inside Portugal
could be contacted. It seems that they have lost all connectivity to the
outside world.

- again the counts for Germany (DE) and United-Kingdom (UK) have been done
inside the country, and the results collected at the NCC.

Overall a nice increase of around 17,000 to just under 272,000. It seems that
300,000 can be reached near the next RIPE meeting in January in Prague.

Comparing this with the global zone survey as done at SRI by Mark Lottor, we
can conclude that almost 25% of all hosts in the DNS are in Europe (or at
least registered in the European part of the DNS).
