Hit me with the cluestick if you figure it out.
In the end I wrote my own brute force script. See attached, GPL, all
care no responsibilty, yada yada.
To use it, just setup your /etc/network/interfaces for one location,
then copy it to /etc/local/switchto/<location_name>/interfaces. Do
similar for resolve.conf For each different setup, add a new
<location_name> directory (in /usr/local/switchto).
Then (as root)
# switchto home
will copy those 2 files from the /usr/local/switchto/home directory, and
restart your network.
Kludge, yep! Works, yep!
