You can do this with netenv actually in some cases.
I have changed the config-file for my network ( /etc/netenv/apollo-home
) to include a line 'DHCP = "y"', instead of all the ip-stuff.
I am using a pcmcia network-card, so the network is being setup in
/etc/pcmcia/network and /etc/pcmcia/network.opts
In network.opts the netenv script is included to fill in the variables.
Grtz, Floris.
