cant connect

ok the fact taht i cant even connect to the school UNIX server isnt good. thats where the project is.
the server address is telnet://164.106.464.10

when i type it in and press enter a window pops up and it says Connecting to 164.106.464.10 then it just closes. doesnt say anything (or it closes too fast for me to read it)

what to do?

The IP address you are using is not valid. You've got more bits there than what is available in a 255.255.255.255 addressing scheme.

Norsk,

I'd agree with you if that was the case. There was no sarcastic content in my response. No bullying, caps etc. I can certainly attest that there was no malignant intent.

Cheers,

Keith
