I don't think we really want to be giving the idea that people should use our SAP servers as example targets. Also, the example alternate domain is fubar.org. Unfortunately, fubar.org is assigned to someone, and I doubt we asked for permission. I think there were other problems in definitions.tex; one of the sample IPs looked like a multicast address, etc. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: I changed 18.72.0.44 to 10.0.0.6 as a stopgap until someone who actually knows what the recommended solution for example domains and IPs looks at the document. (I'm cc:ing jhawk because I believe he had a good answer to this type of problem the last time someone asked him.) >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: We need to be careful what example address we use.
