Yes, because that up there contains exactly *one* IP address - so I'd hardly 
call that "blocks".

I have no idea what you are trying to tell me - you cannot "subnet out" one
IP address to "your PIX firewall".

And hadn't you snipped what I wrote, you could have seen that it is impossible
to have 192.168.0.16 with a netmask of 255.255.255.224 with 192.168.0.16 being
the network address, as that IP address with that network mask can only be an
address in an address range from 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.0.30 with .0 being
the network and .31 being the broadcast address.
