Even though I'd love to bash Windows I really can't think they have any problems with a 0 or 255 value in an octet. Good old class A and B networks (sorry Gert!) have always had lots of host-addresses where the last octet would be 0 or 255. Having all bits zero or all bits one in the host address is (still) illegal, but having an octet all zeros is not necessarily wrong. But we digress. :-) Regards, Peter _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
