That's nifty! But isn't there a tool already in OSOL for just that -- albeit a
JDS (GNOME) based one? I've never had to use PPPoE on Solaris, so I don't know
particularly. Or, alternately, shouldn't some version of Network Manager be
used? That's a (optional) dependency of both Free desktops nowadays, I think.
This isn't to say that your wizard is a bad idea. On the contrary, but it
might be good to watch the other network configuration tools as well.
