Re: [cobalt-developers] Another DNS Reverse Lookup Question

I'm in a server farm. they have assigned me 10 assorted ip address

mask. Obviously  I don't understand, and I'm sure /20 is wrong, but the
interface defaults to /24 (which it worked on initially) but now it
doesnt

maybe i should buy that bind book at barnes and noble...
