Definition of hosts in WIMS can be made either through host name or IP
3
number. But we highly recommend that you use IP numbers whenever possible.

Host names are not as secure.

You can also define global host names in the usual way: <tt>127.0.0.</tt>
7
(but not <tt>127.0.0</tt>)
8
matches 127.0.0.1 to 127.0.0.255, and <tt>.unice.fr</tt>
9
(but not <tt>unice.fr</tt>) matches any host in the domain <em>unice.fr</em>.
10
You can also make several host definitions, by separating definitions
11
by white spaces.

insecure, but if you choose it, that is your problem.
