Hi Dmitry,

23.

That looks like the whois information. That's not a reliable way to find out 
what country an IP address belongs to. You should use geoiplookup.

 DP> So the total number is: 22+3=25.

23+3=26. Still a lot more then the 12 that are in the nodelist!?

Can you list the nodes your software finds located in the Netherlands?


Bye, Wilfred.
