The number listed after the server name indicates the number of routing
hops between this server and the listed servers. Your server is indicated
by 0 hops
Servers more than 16 hops away aren’t recognized.
DISPLAY SERVERS also displays eDirectory trees and network
addresses. A server can be displayed many times, once for each service
that it advertises.
For example, a NetWare server running IPX would be listed at least twice
because it would use SAP both for eDirectory and for advertising file
services.

buffers will be lost.
