If I follow you correctly, you are indexing complete IP addresses, but
you need to search for parts of IP addresses.  Because htsearch is a word
based search, and you've set it up to treat the whole IP address as a
single word, you'll only get an exact match if you also search only for
whole IP addresses.  To search for parts, you'd need to use the prefix
or substring fuzzy match algorithm in search_algorithm.  You may also
want to look for the IP addresses in your db.wordlist file to confirm
that htdig did indeed index the IP addresses you asked it to.
