Re: [Plug] Linux/W95 LAN


No, this is not necessarily so.  192.168.*.* is class B, 
but you are free to subnet this further if you want.

In this guy's case, it looks like he has set up 192.168.1.*
as a class C subnet, which is fine.  As long as all the interfaces
on that subnet have a netmask of 255.255.255.0, it should be OK.
