The program /etc/htable is supposed to translate a file that is in NIC
HOSTS.TXT format to the /etc/hosts format used by UNIX. Well, someone
forgot to inform htable about sub-nets. If the following input is given
to htable:
NET : 128.118.2.0 : CC-ETHER1 :
NET : 128.118.3.0 : CC-WILLARD1 :
NET : 128.118.6.0 : CS-MAIN :
NET : 128.118.8.0 : CS-SUN :
NET : 128.118.9.0 : CS-VLSI :
NET : 128.118.10.0 : CS-3B :
NET : 128.118.11.0 : CS-TERM :
NET : 128.118.12.0 : CS-WORK :
The following output is generated:
cc-willard1 128.118
cs-main 128.118
cs-sun 128.118
cs-vlsi 128.118
cs-3b 128.118
cs-term 128.118
cs-work 128.118
The question then is: "Has anyone updated htable to take into account
the use of sub-nets?"
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
