They also offer 8 IP addresses at the same price as one... HOWEVER... You should be aware that RIPE rules have changed. ISPs can be required to show "technical need" for a larger range, or RIPE can demand that ISPs "reclaim" address blocks from customers. In general, to show "technical need", you have to demonstrate that your network has more complex requirements that could be handled with a NAT router, and a reverse proxy server :-) If anyone is asked for such a "technical justification", feel free to drop me an email off-list, and I'll be happy to help. I used to have to write them for a living for "big blocks" :-) Mark -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
