No, money isn't really a concern, especially regarding a few simple IP's
<wry grin>.  I've got three boxes in two different NOC's and if I couldn't
afford a few IP's, I'd hang it up..

This questions was based purely on my desire to configure my primary DNS to
optimal configuration should my NOC ever decide to move the machine (like
this weekend).  It was necessary to reconfigure to a new box/Mac address
over the weekend (basically because of that damn faulty security 2.2 patch
issued last week), and when they moved the box (same IP's etc), my entire
service was out of commission for almost 2 days while propagation continued
through-out the systems.  I was wondering if I had used another IP instead
of the default IP assigned to the box if that would have made a
difference...(?)
