Since I hop networks a lot I find this annoying - yet I don't like the idea that I might accidentally scrag my network entries by running pcnetconfig. So, I keep a directory (n.opts) full of alternate network.opts setups, and swap them in as desired. If I get to a new site and need another, I run pcnetconfig, then copy the results to a new file in n.opts. I tend to copy in my "dynamic" file to network.opts when I'm wandering - lots of internet coffeehouses and small sites use DHCP. I suppose I could hack it so it would look for the scheme name in there, but I haven't got around to it, and would have to be reeeeeally careful during upgrades of card services. Which has been happening a lot lately. Enjoy * Heather * star@ many places...
