   So, the rule is that IP addresses shouldn't contain leading zeros.  
Fair enough, I just thought it was more accurate to use all posible 
characters in each set of three.

   Good Idea, but I think I'll stick w/ the correct format.  I assume 
there is no need to add the 209.42.51.36 address in the alias area since 
it already knows about that.

   Thanks again for your time and help in these matters.
