[olug] wierd thing on cox network

[Brian Roberson]

Thought this was weird enough to pass on to the list...

When I woke up this morning and went to do my regular routine, I was unable to 
ssh into olug.org - could ping and traceroute/etc... but not get in.... This freaked 
me out for about 2 minutes until I realized my dhcp lease expired last night and 
I was issued not the usual 68.13.x.x address - yet a 24.252 address... anyone 
have an idea whats going on @ cox? not that its broke or anything, just why 
the change back to 24 network - I thought that belonged to @home. but after doing
a whois -it is a block assigned to cox-atlanta - with a superclass of "OM-RDC" - whatever that is...
