[comp.mail.misc] wanted: 2 character country codes

vturner@nmsu.EDU (Vaughan Turner) (01/12/91)

Hello!

I'm looking for a document that has all of the 2 character country codes
in it.  My question is two fold:

1) can anyone e-mail me one.

2) is there anywhere (a list, ftp site, etc.) that I can get updates from.

Any help would be appreciated,

Vaughan

Thanks for the quick responses!

Several people have mailed me the file I asked for.

I tried to mail everyone directly, but I may have missed some people, so
Thanks to everyone who responded.

Sounds good!
Now can someone tell us where to find an online list of the *three*-
character codes used in domain addressing, or at least in the names
of the map files?

Thanks,

Here's a copy of the advertised file from Denmark, for those who can't
get a copy for whatever reason ...

They are only used in the names of the map files, not in domain addressing.

I wonder why the maps aren't issued with names from the *two*-letter set,
so that one doesn't need a lookup table to see which registered two-letter
domain has hosts in which three-letter file.  That makes it a four-letter
effort.
