Hi, Which questions should I ask during the installation of netman-gui regarding autostarting and autoconnecting.
I suggest these, but listening to what others have to say is always good. a) Do you want netman-gui to start automatically on DE/WM login? (Y/N) b) Do you want netman-gui to connect automatically once it is started? (Y/N) c) Do you want netman-gui to use a system tray icon? (Y/N) For these I will need to use template files which are similar to control files.
