Subject:	SCOUG-General: All-numeric IP address ?

Content Type: text/plain

In my prior message I was wondering about "http://3626046468/".

After sending it I realized that the number fits perfectly into a 32-bit
integer.

So I converted 3626046468 to a 32-bit value, separated the four bytes,
and got:

216.33.20.4

I tried this converted address and that's the address!

So, to hide an IP address, you can (apparently) convert it to one long
decimal number.
