But I'm surprised 1918 space was used as well. ANY v4 address will get typed into ping or a browser or something by someone if it is on TV. How many corporations have 1918 space that their VPN'ed home users are about to abuse because of that? Is 127.0.0.1 / ::1 the Internet version of "555"? Or will "I hurt myself, so now I'm going to sue you" mean we can't even use that? - - -- TTFN, patrick - -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.8 (Darwin) iEYEARECAAYFAk2GgTEACgkQznMLL4aoth+u3wCglGK+yrFj3PhI61O78IEqQ40V KyMAoK0MJ26OxPab10za4LQ6U8qomrPU =uJz7 - -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.8 (Darwin) iEYEARECAAYFAk2GgTcACgkQznMLL4aoth9c8ACgkT0XYIAsZ2IORlYH+nopOLmH z/sAoLILGcEnxhR1QHXnU+NvJPDuaYvT =RNrE -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
