thank you..... it says it is on the 24 subet (225.225.225.0) as are all the other computers. That isn't default, is it? The way i'm looking at this (the way I think I understand it is: 8bits.8bits.8bits.0-255 /8 . /16 ./24 . 0 255.255.255.0/24 255.255.0.0/16 255.0.0.0/8 Is my understanding right or reverse of how it works. Yeah.... I just reread one of your posts with this understanding and I;m pretty sure that is correct. On Wed, Mar 14, 2012 at 4:19 PM, James Mcphee wrote: > ipconfig /all > -- :-)~MIKE~(-:
