I looked a bit at it and for what I see, excellent work. Thanks for the
help with this.

I am quite busy at the university for the next 3 weeks. It's the same
every semester: for 4 months nothing, and all exams in the last 2 weeks.
Sigh....
But after that, I will be happy to work on the first version of our
little project (doing the same as Anthony's current version, but ported
to C++ and using the simple interface for gathering configuration data -
so maybe sometime we can switch to Wichert's configuration management
system). Then we should think about enhancements - support for complex
(source-based) routing tables comes instantly to my mind....

I would say that cutting a string could make something bad happen -
return NULL.
