I just wondered if anyone had any suggestions for a good way to do
this.  My laptop is configured for my wired office network and my home
wireless network.  Once I got the nic's configured, suse cleverly
started automatically figuring out which network I wanted without any
input from me.

I'm just wondering if I can make it automatically switch host files
for me, or at least modify the localhost entry.  Prior to installing
suse I would just toggle a commented out entry for local host and run
my one-line shell script to set up a few ssh tunnels to my office.  I
just modify the localhost entry so that I don't have to reconfigure
any software like email server settings.  So imap.example.com:143 will
hit my ssh tunnel on 127.0.0.1:143, for example.

I was poking around with scpm.  It didn't seem like it could do this
readily, aside from maybe telling it to run a script where I could
perhaps cp different /etc/hosts files into place.  Not exactly an
elegant solution, but if that's the only way...
