I have no idea how the people that setup the network that is person is trying to connect to allowed them to set it up that way to begin with: askubuntu.com/questions/1169547/…

In a 255.255.255.0 network a server address of 192.168.2.0 is completely invalid!

Just proves that Microsoft Winders is broken to allow a network like that to even work in the first place.

.....And, OP doesn't listen. I can't convince them that the network is setup incorrectly.

By the way, there's no point in voting to delete spam after flagging in. In fact, it's a bad idea since you might end up deleting it before it collects enough spam flags, so then the post will be deleted but the spam filters won't know about it.

@JourneymanGeek I agree with you 100%. I am not sure how they got a network setup like that to work in the first place or how the Windows output allowed it.

@Terrance or if his information is wrong

@JourneymanGeek That is also a huge possibility. =)
