3328.0. "Help on DEC Stock Quote Command File" by CATNIP::COTTER (Linda Cotter-Cranston 264-3698 MKO1-2/M34) Sat Aug 13 1994 22:42

    
    I used to run an old com file "quote" that would respond
    back with the latest Digital stock quote... it stopped working
    about a month ago.  I get a "remote node unreachable" error. I
    don't know what the node name is because the com file references
    node 26120, not a node name.  Anybody else out there run into
    this and find the solution?  I'm assuming they either renamed
    the system it was on or the node movbed and is in a different
    area.

3328.1the magic word is DIODE::NPSS::JOHNSONMike J., Network Products SupportSat Aug 13 1994 23:427
The node name is DIODE.  I believe it moved to DECnet area 4 a few weeks ago.
I had both an ASCII text and DECwindows versions of an executable that I 
hacked to substitute the nodename for the number.  Now, the next time it moves
I suppose the name will change :^).
