>From someone for whom the description "Networking is My Weakest Area" is also apt, I'd just like to say thanks to Neal and Bruce for explaining all that stuff about GATEWAY, BROADCAST and NETMASK. Very lucid and helpful.
Although the information is presented briefly in section 7.13: Configuring the Network, the discussion there is rather terse. Would it be a bad idea to "copy and paste" content from Bruce & Neal's recent posts - either into the LFS book, or else into a Hint that the book then references?
