No Worries Adrian,

I am confident I won't be the only one to benefit, thank you.

Kind regards
David

My apologies, I meant Network layer, not Transport.  Sheesh.  Serves me right 
for spamming the list with general info (as I spam it 
again with my correction ;)

So there 4 bits in the 2nd octet, 8 bits in the 3rd octet, and 8 bits in the 
4th octet that are valid for use as IPs on the local 
subnet (the +'s represent bits that, if changed, would tell the Transport layer 
that the IP is not local... the -'s are bits you can 
change to give yourself IPs local to your subnet.  Note that they correspond to 
the 1's and 0's of the netmask).

Actually, this is the first time I've heard subnetting explained in a way
that actually made sense.
Kudos!
And thank you!
