Thanks. I happen to be using pump which is what gets started by the netcfg
interface. Seems to work fine.
I do have a question though. Do you happen to know if my DHCP IP address
can change while I'm up or can it only change when I'm in a reboot?
The reason I'm asking is because, though it's not permanent, I do have a
DNS name which is pointed to by a forward file on my world account. This
allows me to be mail delivered by smtp instead of by pop3.
I know that in terms of practical purposes, my address is good for
*around* 6 months. So I have some scripting which will change my .forward
file if I boot with a different address.
Anybody know?
