Hi Calissa,

I don't think the variables.pl file is an issue in your problem because you
are using NetReg v1.3rc2 with the latest CIDR update. The CIDR version of
variables.pl and register.cgi does not use the $ALLOW_DOMAIN variable. All
subnet information is stored in /etc/netreg/subnet.dat.

I noticed a small problem in your subnet.dat. The 3rd parameter in
subnet.dat should refer to the total number of leases allocated to your
registered client pool, but instead it refers to total number hosts allowed
on your entire subnet.

Subnet.dat:
     1st 2nd 3rd 4th (empty)
   157.62.236.0/23:LaurelB:510::

dhcpd.conf:

     Registered Host Pool
     -------------------------------------------------
     range 157.62.236.5 - 157.62.236.49 (45)
     range 157.62.236.156 - 157.62.236.229 (74)
     range 157.62.236.246 - 157.62.236.254 (9)

     Unregistered client pool
     -------------------------------------------------
     range 157.62.236.50 - 157.62.236.154 (105)

The above ranges in your registered client pool are only 128 total leases,
not 510 and your unregistered client pool has only 105 available leases. The
third parameter should say 128, instead of 510. BTW, your lease pools are
too small and should be increased. Since your subnet starts at 157.62.236.1
and ends at 157.62.237.254, you should make use of the unused address space
between 157.62.237.1 and 157.62.237.254 for your lease pools.
