As has already been noted, it's a single exact key match. > any example/reference would be appreciated .... You'll need to use a script that I had to use in the bad old days of sendmail - the access database for sendmail also only took single IP's, but it was too much work to maintain a list like that. Grab this script: http://www.megacity.org/software_downloads/cidrexpand and do a 2 pass run over your file - first convert it with the abve script and then build the db.
