Hi Bret!

I'm glad you found your way over here.

Hey guys, I tried to figure this one out over on the
questions list.  But I can't figure why they are switching
him from 216.102.x.x to 216.105.x.x???

I'm usually good with DNS, and have set up two classless
systems, but I haven't seen it done this way... Or an RFC to
this effect!

And what about the in-addr.arpa's for the 216.105.x.x IP's?

It just doesn't make since!  Any ideas?
