I'm using netenv, this is a very simple, extendable program that asks you in what environment you are at boottime, and according to your answer sets up network and possibly other things such as mouse, printer, X-config. It's very simple, that's what I like about it :-) Grtz, Floris. -- Nobody is perfect I am nobody. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
