Adam> But, ah, I think that's a story for another time... LOL! Been there! We're using lots of 10.x stuff internally, and even as we merge related OpCos in, we have to deal with overlaps and other painful stuff. And using public IP spaces... really dumb outside a lab environment. I mean how hard is it to use 10.x.x.x for everything these days? And esp for ESX to Netapp stuff, a private VLAN and private IP space is the best way forward. I haven't touched it yet, but 8.3 looks to allow you to mix the same IP spaces across VServers, which is really neat, and might address alot of these issues. _______________________________________________ Tech mailing list Tech@lists.lopsa.org https://lists.lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tech This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
