In the old days that would be a supernet because the 192.168.x.x is a class C (255.255.255.0). But that no longer holds true (and for the life of me I can't remember the dang name, something like classless). Today that would signify that the network 192.168.0.0 covers the IP addresses 192.168.0.0 through 192.168.3.255. It is a little odd if this is a home network. It's not. :D It's college. -- Linux Home Automation Neil Cherry ncherry@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxha.com/ Main site http://linuxha.blogspot.com/ My HA Blog http://home.comcast.net/~ncherry/ Backup site -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
