Phew. I ran out of memory space long ago. Information I use often eg tcp/udp
ports, out of repeated use, somehow managed to find some memory location

options that often, especially since most dhcp servers give you nice and
friendly (translation english) option names when configuring them :)

Thanks Antonio.
