This is actually one of the big questions on my plate right now.  Some
ideas (in no particular order):

- SI post-script that reads a text file (stored in the ./scripts
  directory) and invokes System Configurator for each interface
  specified.  Such a text file might look something like:

 #<HOST> <IFACE> <IP>      <MASK>        <BCAST>     <GATEWAY>
   host1 eth0    192.1.1.1 255.255.255.0 -           -
   host1 eth1    192.2.2.1 255.255.255.0 -           -
   host1 tr1     192.3.3.1 255.255.255.0 -           -
   host1 eth0:1  192.4.4.1 255.255.255.0 192.4.4.255 192.4.4.254

- Maybe incorporate this info into the SystemInstaller database somehow.
  Perhaps store it there, but generate this file from it?  Dunno.  Maybe
  even have the client query the database directly over the net?  Dunno.
