Nothing is wrong with this, and in fact many people do just this: [nate@slim:nate]$ nslookup 206.168.194.122 Server: 127.0.0.1 Address: 127.0.0.1#53 Non-authoritative answer: 122.194.168.206.in-addr.arpa canonical name = 122.194.168.206.nxdomain.com. 122.194.168.206.nxdomain.com name = bigmo.nxdomain.com This is still a classless delegation, just not an example used in RFC2317. I personally think it's more visually appealing then the CIDR or range subdomains, but not as informative. -- "A UNIX saleslady, Lenore Likes work, but likes the beach more.
