I knew about the private IP blocks 192.168./16. I had given the IP address
192.168.1.1 to my linux box, but after that I was not able to connect to
the Unix server ( for some strange reasons they have assigned IP 160.1.1.1
to the sco server ). Hence I assigned the IP from 160.1.1... block to the
Linux server.
I will have to do some reading on this stuff.
