Actually, that block would also include 172.16.0.253, and the netmask would be 255.255.255.0
How to calculate it...that's a bit more complicated to explain than is feasible, here, in an email message. A quick Yahoo/Google search yields a lot of references, but the following site; http://www.csc.fi.english/funet/calc/laskin2.html will allow you input the beginning and end IPs, and wil give you a list of possible netmask ranges. Also, if you have a Palm/Visor/Clie handheld, there is a program available called "IPcalc" (available at http://www.palmgear.com) which is even better.
