Hi, I have a laptop with debian (unstable) installed on it. Sometimes I use it at home and sometimes I use it at work. At work, it has a direct connection to the internet, so it has its own IP. At home, its connection is masqueraded through my main linux box which shares a cable modem. There, the address of the laptop is 192.168.0.2. Anyway, the addresses are different at both places, but they are both static addresses.
Can someone think of a way that I can configure the startup scripts to know which IP address needs to be used? I have complete control of the linux box at home, so I could use DHCP there, but I couldn't configure DHCP at work. Any suggestions? Thanks. -- Brian J.
