Hi ! Today I installed a Debian Slink system as proxy server. There I found it annoying, that the standard place for IP addresses was /etc/rcS.d/S40network. IMHO no end user should fiddle around with /etc/rc*. Why is there no /etc/network.conf or similar. Or has this changed in the recent netbase.deb ? read you, -christian- -- Christian Hammers WESTEND GmbH i.G. Tel 0241/701333-0 ch@westend.com DPN Verbund-Partner Aachen u. Dueren Fax 0241/911879
