Try contacting the Public number for the agency. The operator should have access to the internal Phone list, and can tell you if the number is valid. I don't know how it is dine these days but when I was working, the internal directory had a check box to publish your name, and it was dumped to GEDS about once a month. -- Charles MacDonald Stittsville Ontario cm...@zeusprune.ca Just Beyond the Fringe http://www.TelecomOttawa.net/~cmacd/ No Microsoft Products were used in sending this e-mail. _______________________________________________ Linux mailing list Linux@lists.oclug.on.ca http://oclug.on.ca/mailman/listinfo/linux
