Hi All, I am using woody with a Sony Vaio utilizing a WLAN card. Sometimes I use my laptop in a LAN which I access via Ethernet and the next day with WLAN. On a client side I cannot use dhcp, but have to use a fixed IP. On two other sites I use wlan, but with different passwords.
What can I do to handle this mess? One thing I found is that when my WLAN Card is inserted the cardmgr issues a ./network start eth1 (my WLAN card), which is nice, but in an environment where I use the same IP/Routing etc. via Ethernet (fixed line) and WLAN it is not very helpful without shutting down eth0 first. How can I change the current behaviour? I'd like to call a shutdown to eth0 if eth0 and eth1 are configured in the same way. I don't want to do that if they are different. When starting up debian it asks me in which network environment I want to work. What is that good for? If I could select where I am going to connect this time would it solve my problem, but afaik it the mechanism will just be able to manage different ip addresses, doesn't it? Any ideas?
