Is it easy enough to change a formated IP addy (eg 192.168.0.1) to the 32bit
unsigned int that computers use?
the reason I ask is because it is alot more efficient space wise in a db to
be storing a 32bit number rather that a char or varchar field.
Or am I going to run into trouble because all ints are signed in PHP?
