long2ip(3232238081) = '192.168.10.-255'

3232238081 % 256 = -255

3232238081 % 256 = 1

I don't see any problem here, the script below produce the correct output:

[derick@kossu derick]$ php-4.3.2RC4 
<?php
echo long2ip(3232238081);
?>
192.168.10.1

Please submit a valid script that reproduces this problem.

<?php
echo 2147483647 % 1000,"\n";
echo 2147483648 % 1000,"\n";
echo 2147483649 % 1000,"\n";
echo fmod(2147483648,1000),"\n";
?>

Output:

647
-648
-647
648

This is on 32 bit Linux. I'm not sure whether % is supposed to work with numbers bigger than LONG_MAX. 

No problem with long2ip here.

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

PHP only supports signed integers (range is -2147483648 to 2147483647 on Linux), so this is actually the expected behavior. We do not 'upgrade' the number to a float automatically because that would be against the nature of the % operator: integer modulo.

Won't fix is a better state.
