It's unlikely that this address will require a netmask of 255.255.255.0 - that netmask is typically for a Class C address (192.x.x.x - 254.x.x.x.) . You've got a class A address (1.x.x.x. - 128.x.x.x). You should probably use a netmask of 255.0.0.0 *unless* your network administrators have changed the netmask for your subnet. The only real way to know is to ask them. Alternatively, if you have to guess, try setting yourself up as a dhcp client and see what address and netmask you get back.
