Why does it have to be random? Approximately one in 256 times, 
192.168.0.0/24 will be picked randomly. And if its an unrouteable 
address anyway, and on a private IP network behind a NAT router and 
firewall, does it REALLY matter if a whole load of different people 
use 192.168.0.0/24. I don't mean the technical answer, I mean the 
practical everyday answer.
Just wondering...
