When I was reading for a CCNA (heck, yet another paper, sort of) the
instructor started out with a lot of stuff about classful addressing ...
Anyway a brief overview of that stuff doesn't hurt, if at least to make sense
of what everybody else who has not quite caught on to the fact that classful
addressing is deprecated is saying :)

LOST #186 -**< Sub : Accessing ext2 through Windows >**-
Download a program called "explore2fs" from:
http://uranus.it.swin.edu.au/~jn/linux/explore2fs.htm
and install it in win9x partition ... It gives explorer like
interface. WARNING! Write to ext2 is still alpha .. use with
caution ... ext2 partition read is 100% safe.
