Not if you want them to employ you. It's not good practice to probe their
network without their permission. There may be a serious lack of trust if you
reveal to them that you where doing so without going through proper channels.

Subject: application for an employment
Dear listmembers,
i am seeking for a new job as a Unix/Linux systemadministrator. There has been
an advertisement at a well known university. So I started to prepare my self
for the application. While collecting some information about the network, using
nmap, dig, etc... I was able to read the whole namespace from the ip range
(255.255.0.0)
My question is should I use some of the information I have found out to push my
application forward? What do you think how a director would react?

Mit freundlichen Grüßen
