I guess he's confused by the fact that /24 complains about bits 25-31 beeing set, while /25 does not complain aobut bigs 26-31 beeing set.

It should read: in this case ... has no bits set to right of 8th Least Significant Bit??? (with a ^ showing the position where the mask ends, making it obviously visible to the ones who use text base MUAs in fixed width font terminals). In other words, why doesnt the system produce an error for the second query as well??? I'm sure you are aware that 1 is a set bit, so which part are you not understanding? Others (Marcus) have reported that the second query SELECT '255.255.255.255/25'::cidr; indeed produces an error in 8.1; so i guess its a bug in the 7.4.x series. -- -Achilleus ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 6: explain analyze is your friend
