This would be for privacy reasons, right? i.e. to avoid advertising my own address? Now, a PO box in Italy (at Poste Italiane, the former national(ised) post service and now privatised) cost a whopping 100 euro/year[1], which would be more than what I am currently planning on spending on the node! What if I put there my university address? (I am a PhD there and we can receive mail, besides, if you look up my name on the internet it would take you very little to find my University address). > What happens is > that the handful of IP addresses assigned to your server > get their own WHOIS sub-record listed first before the > ISP address-block record.

Thanks, I will do that. This is a very useful advice.
