What happens is somtimes you run into a problem where you need 2 ranges, e.g. 208.161.25.* and 205.130.*.*, so you are left with the option of entering *.*.*.* --I'm not sure about weather or not you can enter multipul IP ranges, but I think it would help the situation; also it would help if they ranges were defined with the subnet mask, instead of *'s whitch only allow us to specify a class a, b, or c, address, classless IP subnetting can narrow it down alot beter.

Example:

#.#.#.#/S network number (ip number) / network bits

so "208.161.25.32/27" (snm of 255.255.255.224) would only allow IP's 208.161.25.33-62 to be used. different ranges would be added with commas and a semicollin at the end.

i.e.

ips=208.161.25.32/27,205.150.0.0/16;

would allow 208.161.25.33 - 208.161.25.62, or 205.150.0.0 - 205.150.255.255


Thats the system I would use anyway :o

read my post, i just said you can use multiple ip ranges by putting , inbetween eg 66.66.66.66,77.77.77.77
