I like the sounds of this, and it's sounds very logical, but when I tried
this it did not work, I had a connection dialed up and had a netmask like
this defined, but it would not route, as soon as I added the netmask
111.222.333.32 255.255.255.240, voila it worked, what could I have done
wrong, for that to work and not the other. I had the user in a radius
table with a framed route(xxx.xxx.xxx.32 xxx.xxx.xxx.33 1) and a netmask of
255.255.255.240.
