[ILUG] Enabling server to access single IP address out of net mask range

[Patton, Tony]

I don't want to reconfigure the kernel.

As for changing the router, we don't know the commands, or even fell
confident about changing it.
And the suppliers of the .205. router (SkyNet) cannot come in directly and
the suppliers of the 1.1
router ( NTL ) will not let them.
