[AccessD] masking question

I don't want leading zeros though...this gives really odd results. If
you were to type, "ping 010.011.196.017", you are not going to ping the
intended address, but rather 8.9.196.15

I don't understand this myself...I'm trying to investigate what is
actually happening on the network side of things, but either way, it
means I can't store this way. Well, I could, but it would be confusing.

So would forcing the leading zeros with "000.000.000.000"
