I never heard anyone calling that "subnetting", as a subnet is a differently defined term. ------------------------- JohnStanley Writes I agree Subnetting and Subnet are 2 different things in whole. Subnetting is taking an IP and borrowing bits from the ip and making additional net blocks perferably in dotted decimal form is the easiest way. I guess seeing as you (DE Land) and I(US) both are of different nationalities bring up the information devide between us. For the most part we are referring to the same thing but are calling it a diferent name. I do often however have a laugh at times about things on this list from people in Europe. I read posts sometime that mean something totaly different here but then some will answer it where the poster is from and then it kinda begins to make sense. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
