Error: Using IP address in DHCP Opt 66 or 150

[rkmwpb]

Dual Server has an error I've verified in both v7.75 & v8.00 RC.

Using an IP address (four octets, eg- 99.99.99.99) in DHCP option# 66 or 150 (DHCP Options for TFTP server), will produce strange unicode results that are unrelated to the data.

For example, the following works fine:

66=tftp-server.internal

Yet the following (either of the records) results in strange text from DualServer:

66=10.10.10.10
150=10.10.10.10

In addition, there is something about the #3 option (Router aka Default Gateway) that doesn't work on the majority of my machines (linux or Windows). All other fields are populated; however, the Default Gateway is not.

It makes no difference whether I use the name or number, for example:

Router=10.10.10.1
3=10.10.10.1

DHCP Options having string value should be double quoted

66="10.10.10.10"
150="10.10.1.010"

Thanks
