Even if you and I do not know how it should be done ourselves. What about /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-post and the others? I see a /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-tunnel event script. Surely there is a Right Place in there somewhere to insert an event driven action? Those appear to source a file /etc/sysconfig/network that could be (ab)used for this purpose too. If I had no other way then I would wedge it in there. I am looking at RHEL which is as close to a Fedora system as I have available to peek into at this moment. But I would find it very shocking if the answer really is that Fedora does not have this capability. Bob
