yes, I did a google search, nothing. Thank-you

He is supposed to be talking about Windows in general, but I think he is talking about Linux/Unix. The exact statement is: "In order to efficiently sort this data, the file system consists of several nodes. A node is an addressable space on the hard drive. The different nodes are files, directories, and subdirectories." Watcha think?

Thank-you everyone! Chilifrei64, your friends sight is very good and very helpfull, thank-you very much!!

I have the book, "Complete guide to network Servers and Server+" In this book the guy who wrote it says that a node is an addressable space on the hard drive. Does anyone know where this idea comes from? I have looked everywhere to prove him right, but no luck. I do not agree with him. Is there anyone out there that does, and that can prove it? it would be great if someone did!!

I happen to have the answers to this, and I would like to know how you get the bits? The actual answer is 11 bits for this problem. Doesn't this have something to do with 8 bits being in the subnet identifier? Which then would be /19-8, giving you eleven? I really don't know, this is all so confusing.
