Reserved IP Addresses - and my web site..

[George Toft]

Looks like your web page reference is a little out-of-date:
[joe@router /tmp]$ fwhois 65.0.0.0@whois.arin.net
[whois.arin.net]
@Home Network (NETBLK-HOME-3BLK)HOME-3BLK             65.0.0.0 -
65.15.255.255
@Home Network (NETBLK-STTLWA1-WA-4) STTLWA1-WA-4        65.0.0.0 -
65.0.15.255

[Duh!]

I guess that just goes to show you how fast things change on the
Internet.
