I presume, then, that this is a bug in the Appletalk code in LinuxPPC, 
even though it's numbered 0.18, as compared to 0.17 in the Redhat 5.2 
we're running on our Intel machines.  The Intel machines have no problem 
with our network numbering ranges, which, according to our network 
administrator, can legally go from 1 to 65535.
