note 21380 added to function.ip2long

Im writing a perl function that emulates the ip2long behavior in php... but im astonished to find that for php ip2long("192.168.0.100") its the same as ip2long("192.168.0.0"). Besides, the underlying algorithm should be something like this (in perl): sub ip2long($){ my $ipstr=shift; $ipstr=~ /(\d+).(\d+).(\d+).(\d+)/; return $4+$3*256+$2*65536+$1*16777216; } so, why does php return a value of 4294967295 for ip2long("192.168.0.100") when math indicates that it should be 3232235620? the php test script i used was this one: <? $a=ip2long("192.168.0.100"); printf("%u\n", ip2long($a)); echo $out; ?> Thanks a lot Ezequiel -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ip2long.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+21380 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+21380 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+21380
