I have a problem with netnews entering the ServerIP number.

The package always truncates the last digit. It appears that the
program was not designed to handle the entire range of numbers.
 
IE. 3 digits.3digits.3digits.3digits

but assumes that the number of characters will be less than that.
 
Any ideas on how to fix the problem?
