Hello. I'm pleased to announce asp 1.7. Now asp automatically stores
the address of the searched host in /etc/hosts. In this way you can
simply use the name of the host instead of remember its address.


LSM entry follows:

Title:		asp
Version:	1.7
Entered-date:	21FEB98
Description:	Asp finds the IP address of an host connected to  Internet
		knowing  the  host name and its possible IP addresses. The
		use of asp is suggested when the nameserver of the  looked
		for  host  does not provide information about its address:
		this is a common case for hosts connected via ppp or  slip
		with  dynamic  IP allocation.  With asp you can let others
		to find your host when it is  on-line  independently  from
		your  ISP;  this  result is obtained running a server (you
		can choose between the standalone server or the inetd ver-
		sion) on your host. See also:
