I appear to have a network specified in one of my lines 192.168.1.0/24:allow,RELAY="" Though I'm not sure specifying the netmask is valid. You can try it. Not sure if you know netmasks - The /24 is the number of bits (where 255 is 11111111 in binary, count the 1s and you have 8 bits. So 255.255.255.0 = 11111111.11111111.11111111.00000000 = /24 ) Here's a page if you know what your starting and ending IPs are http://www.csc.fi/english/funet/calc/laskin2.html or just google 'netmask calculator' - there are more advanced ones.
