Thanks for pointing this out... 1) The man pages are believed to be up to date. Tim Clark recently went through the manual carefully and the man pages are normally updated each time we change anything. The date shown may not be meaningful on man page entries, so the Feb. 1986 business is not important. 2) isisv2.1/ISISV21.TAR seems to be some sort of an accidental junk file containing copies of a few man pages and nothing else. You should delete it and recover the 80k bytes or so it currently consumes. Ken
