Here's one for the obscurities wishlist: our NetCaches don't recognise integer representations of IPs. Instead of interpreting 3263497985 as 194.133.7.1, for example, they look for www.3263497985.com.

Hmmm...

That's kinda interesting seeing as I'm sure NetApp claim to be using a BSD TCP/IP stack...

1. When did they claim that? 2. I suspect they meant *compatible* stack... there are surely some changes. 3. The translation of decimals to octets isn't really the "stack" IMHO.
