In the subject note, please ignore the brain-damaged comment at the end: >> Can someone please check this for me. >>And does anyone know where the 3400AD determination came from? >>(It's true that the timestamp can be smaller for different Variant fields. >>But the DCE variant field only takes away 2 bits from time-hi.) I was confusing the DCE variant field with the DCE version field. The version field is always 4 bits in a DCE UUID and the timestamp is always 60 bits. It is the clock-sequence number (a different beast altogether) that is narrowed as the variant field changes size. -- Dennis Dennis E.
