<p>
Definition of hosts in WIMS can be made either through host name or IP
number. But we highly recomment that you use IP numbers whenever possible.
Host names are not as secure.
<p>
You can also
define global host names in the usual way
: <span
class="tt">127
.0
.0
.</span
>(but not <span class="tt">127.0.0</span>)
matches 127.0.0.1 to 127.0.0.255, and <span class="tt">.unice.fr</span>
(but not <span class="tt">unice.fr</span>) matches any host in the domain <em>unice.fr</em>.
<p>
<p>
Finally, the word <span class="tt">all</span> matches every host in the world. This is hugely
insecure, but if you choose it, that is your problem.
