Software Distributor Administrator Guide (September 2010)

In the target file, blank lines and comments (lines beginning with #) are ignored. Each
target selection must be specified on a separate line and must consist of a host name
or network address, optionally followed by a colon and a full path:
host[:/directory]
NOTE: The host can be an internet address either in IPv4 format with dot notation
or in IPv6 format. When IPv6 internet address is specified, it can be optionally enclosed
within square brackets [ and ].
