I mean, reserve a stack of 5 or 6, and use them as I see fit, when I see fit? My situation is semi-permanent, and I wouldn't want to have to give up the address' when my machines were not connected to the Internet... (I guess that would mean I would have to get my ISP to add the addresses on their local network, or propagate the NS every time I wanted the network up...) -Brill
