Howdy all,

I was reading through the log file of my sniper server. I saw something
that I am not sure what to make of. I have 5 people playing off of the
same IP address from different ports. Is this something that I should
be concerned about?

The server is Red Hat 7.3, Unreal Tournament 451, there is not Pure
running at this time.

This could easily be a house with 5 university students who share one
Internet connection (via an internal LAN). The different ports
correspond to each of the students' connections.

Nothing that I'd be too worried about.

I did not even think about that when I was reading it. Makes sence though.
