Another month, another hostcount.
Some comments:
- It seems the the old CS domain has ceased to exist. It will be taken
out of the next hostcount. I assume everything has been migrated from
CS to CZ and SK.
- CH shows a change of -6678 hosts. I checked to see what caused this
change and found that for a certain number of large domains, some
nameservers refuse zone listings. It seems more and more people are
using the features in later versions of BIND and other DNS
implementations to block zone transfers from machines other than
secondaries. If this trend continues we may see more and more
namesevers blocking zone transfers and the hostcount becoming less and
less accurate. Therefore an urgent request: if you block zone
transfers from the outside world, please allow zone transfers from
ns.ripe.net [192.87.45.1] for the hostcount. This is done only once a
month during the night and will this hardly impact your nameserver.
- UK broke the 200,000 mark ...
- In total an increase of 36,281 (or 4.1%) to 924,679. 2 more months
to break the million.
Cheers,

This is an overview of the History of the RIPE hostcounts.
It only contains the totals. The totals for 1990-1991 should be considered
rather unstable and unreliable because the program used then was not really
tuned, plus the count was not done as regularly as it is now.
Count : total hostcount for all European top level domains
Delta : delta since previous count
Delta % : delta as percentage of previous count
Q Delta : delta over the past quarter
Q Delta%: delta over last quarter as percentage of end of last quarter count
For the Q Deltas I have not calculated those back before 1992, because the
figures for 1990-1991 are not too reliable.
*) Dec 1991 hostcount estimated at 135,000.
