        Hi;

        I am in the process of investigating solutions for what I am initially
calling a 'IP Proxy Auto Configuration'.

        We want to develop a server that will automatically detect new clients
on the network and configure ip level services so they can talk to the
world.

        Let me explain by a quick example;

        Salesman Al has a laptop with a ethernet card and a static IP address
from his 'home'. Al is at an airport in another city and wants to plug
into a ethernet port and get internet access on his laptop.
Unfortunately Al is not very technical, and barely knows howto use MS
Word.

        I want a server side solution that detects the ip on Al's laptop, and
configures ip level services (ip alias, ip masq, etc..) so he can talk
to the world.


        Elastic Networks (www.elastic.com) has a product called InterProxy that
advertises these features. What I want to know is: are there any Linux
based, open solutions for my problem?

        Cheers

        Chris Price
