I pointed that most of the DDN transition charts I've seen show many nets, including Arpanet, merging into an internet called DDN. He assured me, however, that when all is done, Arpanet will not be part of DDN. I remain puzzled. Now I guess the next question is- is Arpanet really an experimental network for network research or an operational network for use by researchers? Phill
