Hi All,

Thankyou for the input, Im very confused about the address
80/28.192.147.12.in-addr.arpa, could someone tell me how they found
out (ie what tool) it is allocated to percy and ns2 ? Ive looked on
ripe and cant find it, also how can we see who assigned those
addresses ? What is the 80/28 bit at the beginning?

Thanks
