Re: IP ADDRESS

In days of old, for some of our "C" class security installations into
military and government departments, we used tol be able to lock
security down to a specific line, which in RS-232 days ran to a
specific location. So, if you were accessing SASPERS (the SAS
personnel system), even though you may have been a Colonel, or even a
General, there were just some things you couldn't access from insecure
locations.

When networks came about, using fixed IP's, you could approximate the
same sort of things --> even though your PIB may have floated, your IP
remained constant, so I'm guessing that perhaps this "IP knowledege"
may be built into some form of security system

I can see that the program is fine, I am just utterly confused as to why one
