update
We have a server that users post information via NFS. In order for the to get access their computer has to be in the etc/hosts file. what we want to do is allow the subnet so we don't have to add each PC as they need to post.

3. UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers
Hi All,
I am to the UNIX world and want to know if I can specify a range of IP addresses instead of having to include one by one on the HOSTS file.
Can I just say
127.20.1.1 to 127.20.1.156 ?
Or the only way is to put one by one along with the machine name next to the IP ?

localemanager
localemanager(8) BSD System Manager's Manual localemanager(8)
NAME
localemanager -- Configure OpenDirectory Server Locales
SYNOPSIS
localemanager operation [-l localename] [-subnet 1.2.3.4/5] [-server servername] [-i IP address]
DESCRIPTION
localemanager creates, destroys, and edits OpenDirectory Server Locale information. Locales are collections of OpenDirectory servers to
assist clients in locating the nearest OpenDirectory Server.
To use OpenDirectory Server Locales, simply create a locale on an OD server with the createLocale operation. Then add servers and subnets to
the locale. All localemanager operations are performed on the local OpenDirectory node.
The first time a locale is created, a DefaultLocale will automatically be created as well. The DefaultLocale will be used for any clients
that don't match a subnet in any other locale.
Before a locale can be configured, the server must already be an OpenDirectory server.
Locales can be defined on each of the OD servers or on a single OD server in the group of OD master/replicas. For the latter, the locale
information will get replicated to all of the other servers but locales will need to be "enabled" on the other servers by running the command
localemanager enableLocales.
Commands:
help Displays the commands and options.
createLocale Creates a new locale on the local OD server. This command requires the -l option.
deleteLocale Deletes a locale from the local OD server. This command requires the -l option.
showLocale Displays the current locale(s). The -l option can be used to display a specific locale. If -l is not specified, all locales
are displayed.
enableLocales
Enables the use of locales on an OD server. This command is automatically run the first time any localemanager command is run
on an OD server. Therefore this command only needs to be run if no other localemanager commands have been (or will be) run on
this server.
addSubnet Adds a new subnet to the specified locale. This command requires the -l -subnet options.
removeSubnet Removes a subnet from the specified locale. This command requires -l -subnet options.
addServer Adds a server to the specified locale. This command requires the -l -server options. If the -i option is specified, that IP
address will be used by locale clients. This may be useful for multi-homed servers to restrict locale clients to a specific
network interface. If the -i option is not specified the IP address(es) will be looked up.
removeServer Removes a server from the specified locale. This command requires -l -server options. If the -i option is specified, only
that IP address will be removed from the locale. If the -i option is no specified, all of the server's IP addresses will be
removed from the locale.
Options:
-l locale Locale name.
-subnet 192.168.0.0/16
Subnet specified in CIDR notation.
-server server.example.com
Server fully-qualified domain name.
-i 192.168.1.1
Use this IP address for the server. Typically used to limit locale clients to a specific interface on a multi-homed server.
