Although it's not immediately clear to me if it can work w/o cable detection support, you might want to checkout ifplugd: http://www.stud.uni-hamburg.de/users/lennart/projects/ifplugd/ "A configuration daemon for ethernet devices ifplugd is a daemon which will automatically configure your ethernet device when a cable is plugged in and automatically unconfigure it if the cable is pulled. This is useful on laptops with onboard network adapters, since it will only configure the interface when a cable is really connected." _______________________________________________ Eug-LUG mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.efn.org/cgi-bin/listinfo/eug-lug
