Hi Maarten

Thank you for your response.

I was trying to reproduce -xtreg y x, fe- output using other Stata
commands. While I obtained most of them using -reg- and -areg-, but not
the sigma_e and sigma_u.

The fixed effects model is fitted by OSL method, I think.

What I would like to know is how can I evaluate the sigma_e and sigma_u
values.

Thanks again.

N.
