When running config_dns to setup our server as a primary, I get the error 
message:

IP network addresses consist of up to 3 numbers (each between 0 and 255
inclusive) separated by periods. . . ."

I used several standard Class 'C' and 'B' network numbers, and received this 
message, i.e. I entered 207.6.8 and 150.5.4 and 150.5.0 and so on.

This code is in a file called /etc/admin/lib/v.pl, but I can't find the 
problem.

Anyone else have this problem?  Suggestions?  Sure, I guess I could do one 
manually.
