Put something in the docs instead, if you want. Note that netmask apparently does work in the general case - it is only this specific netmask that does not. If we're going to write code for it, it seems more sensible to make it work than to emit a warning, either by using inet_aton as previuosly discussed, or just testing for that exact mask and calling SockAddr_cidr_mask instead of getaddrinfo_all. cheers andrew ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
