Shall we say

Network= 192.168.0.0
Netmask= 255.255.255.0
DNS    = 192.168.0.1
Gateway= 192.168.0.254 # if we actually have one.
domain = plug ???

Then we can say 10->127 as static IP's for those that want them
and 128->253 as Dhcp.

With the static addresses we could even allocate them before the meet.
thatway the "DNS" admin can setup zone files etc etc for services like
Quake, Quake2, Quake3, Halflife, ftp, irc, debian, redhat etc etc.

what sayith ya'll .. if we get organised early then we can probably spend very
little time actually setting up.

PS: as I'm "named" I'll do the DNS stuff if noone else minds ??


Yours Tony.
