I was looking through a modified copy of smurf.c I had (it listened on a port and when an incoming connection was detected, it asked for a host and then smurfed it--or so the documentation says, I just wanted to see how the port listening was achieved) and just wanted to check how many of the broadcasts in the default bcastaddr[] still were smurfable, and noted that the *very first one* was. How would I go about finding out the administrative contact for a network given its broadcast address? Specifically I'm looking for 165.154.1.255, but there are probably some others as well...
This is an easy one...
