Proxy Listing

Hi Dot com, I have a question: I was doing the very first node and the netmask returned:

netmask 12.173.164.0-12.173.164.255
12.173.164.0/255.255.255.0	12.173.164.0/0.0.0.255	12.173.164.0/ 24

I had to double check, but I indeed typed in the correct range. When following the example, the IP range without the netmask makes no sense. With the netmask it makes a little bit more sense but it still makes no sense. So... a) is this correct? b) do you guys need the netmask? c) if this affects other wiki's are there other groups doing the same thing? Are they "inter-collaborating"? --Stux 03:58, 16 November 2005 (UTC)

What doesn't make sense about it? Looks fine to me. The netmask is unnecessary, as it's implied by the /24. --Jay (Gobble) 04:00, 16 November 2005 (UTC)

Maybe my terminology was incorrect, but the part we need is 12.173.164.0/ 24, with the slash and the two-digit number. — It's dot com 04:04, 16 November 2005 (UTC)

Edit Conflict Yeah but the range is from 12.173.164.0-12.173.164.0 implying one IP address? I am not too familiar with the last two notations: 12.173.164.0/0.0.0.255 and 12.173.164.0/ 24 and I wanna make sure i'm not missing anything. --Stux 04:05, 16 November 2005 (UTC)

I'm not totally sure what the first two numbers and masks mean, but what we're looking for is the last one, the one bolded above. — It's dot com 04:07, 16 November 2005 (UTC)
