RE: "ownership" on ancient network assignments?
- Date: Fri, 2 Jun 2000 10:42:07 +0200
Hi,
Perhaps the best way is to split it in two /17 or 3 /18 and 1 /18 no ?
(depending of the need of each ... )
Or on of the two should perhaps ask for a new assignement ...
Any other suggestions ?
Or perhaps get the /16 by playing a chess game ? :-P
Cheers,
