Will there one day be support for environment variables in other 
values? Eg NameServer %DNS% or Gateway %GATEWAY%? It 
would be handy for my LAN, since my ISP seems to have a new 
DNS server every few weeks (the old ones still works but they 
recommend these other ones)

(This is on the 386, Toaster):

I don't even really trust %MYIP%, since it doesn't seem to work 
properly... I have a batch file that runs the packet driver 
(3c509.com) and sets the environment variables. Arachne just hang 
with a black screen (and the borders etc) probably trying to get an 
IP or something. No activity on the hub. She worked when the IP 
address was manually inserted in arachne.cfg.


This 386 will not work if the harddrive is where its meant to be. 
Only if its sitting ontop of the bracket, otherwise it fails with a "HDD 
controller error" or "Hard Drive C failure". Madness!
