<troll> and DNS always breaks and is way to complicated and it's done by another team and we don't talk to them and creating tickets takes way to much time. ;-) </troll> I'm not a software developer but here are some things I noticed besides hard coded IPs: - wrong/old library functions which only supports IPv4 - regex or any other thing to detect a valid IP address (e.g. a valid IP address has only numbers and) - fields in database that are to small - lack of a proper test environment / proper tests Jens -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Delbrueckstr. 41 | 12051 Berlin, Germany | +49-151-18721264 | | http://blog.quux.de | jabber: [email protected] | --------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
