          Thank you for all of the help you have given me the last couple
     of months with Netview. I really appreciate it! I am fairly new to 
     Netview and so I have a lot questions. The mailing list has really 
     helped me out.
     
     I have been working with Tivoli support on a problem I have with the 
     location.conf file. They have fixed the problem in 6.0.1 and my 
     locations are all created successfully now.
     
     The problem I am having is that only a few of the networks get placed 
     in their correct location container when I do a mapgen. Some networks 
     end up in locations that they shouldn't be in and most of them just 
     end up on the IPMap.
     
     Here is a snippet of my location.conf file:
     
        North_East 0 Site
        South_East 0 Site
        North_West 0 Site
        South_West 0 Site
        North_Central 0 Site
        South_Central 0 Site
     
        JFK007    10.157.192.0-7      Site North_East 
        JFK007    10.128.0.24-27      Site North_East 
        JFK007    10.128.2.128-175    Site North_East 
        JFK003    10.157.192.8-15     Site North_East 
        JFK003    10.128.0.40-43      Site North_East 
        JFK003    10.128.3.128-175    Site North_East 
        JFK005    10.157.192.16-23    Site North_East 
        JFK005    10.128.0.48-51      Site North_East 
        JFK005    10.128.4.0-47       Site North_East 
        JFK001    10.157.192.72-79    Site North_East 
        JFK001    10.128.0.72-75      Site North_East 
        JFK001    10.128.10.0-127     Site North_East 
        JFK031A   10.157.192.24-31    Site North_East 
        JFK031A   10.128.0.80-83      Site North_East 
        JFK031A   10.128.16.0-255     Site North_East 
        JFK032A   10.157.192.88-95    Site North_East 
        JFK032A   10.128.0.88-91      Site North_East
     
     Notice I have 6 parent locations. After that I have about 3000 lines 
     of nested locations that are formatted exactly like what you see. My 
     question is, are my IP ranges formatted correctly? In the manual, they 
     only specify the range up to the third octet of the IP address. Is it 
     ok to use the fourth octet if you are subnetting at that level?
     
     I would appreciate any comments you might have on how I could improve 
     this process. I am discovering the network in pieces via the seedfile 
     per you recommendations and that works great! This location stuff is 
     holding me up a little though.
     
     Thanks again!
     
     Chance
