remembered that strings are immutable. So how was I able to change the strings for my dotted quad?
You didn't.
LASTKNOWN = '173.48.204.168' lns = cf.readlines() lns = "".join(lns) lns = re.sub(LASTKNOWN, CURRENT, lns)
I assume this is the line in question? sub() returns a new string containing the substitutions.
