you will have to program something yourself. wackamole embeds a perl interpreter, and has hooks for events related to IP changes etc, so you can run perl code in response to these. given your description above, i think wackamole+spread might be on the too-simple end of "as simple as possible, but no simpler". cheers justin -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
