Hello my fellow monkymen,
I'm looking for a module that can tell me if an IP is in a range. For example, I have a file with a bunch of IP ranges of spammers in the form:
192.168.1.120-192.168.1.141
I want to know if IP address X is in the range above. I looked at too many modules on the CPAN already and some seem to suck big time, so I am asking for advice on which would be the best module to use for this application IYO.
TIA,
Alejandro Imass
Update 1:
Very decent ones seem to be Net::IP::Match by Marcel Grünauer and Net::IP::Match::Regexp by Chris Dolan but they don't really fit my purpose exactly because they seem to use CIDR only. I'm sure there has to be similar decent modules for ranges in the form above!
Update 2:
Paul Bennett's Net::IPAddress::Util and related modules seem very cool and probably fit my bill. Any other suggestions?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

are good places to start.
