I'd just remove the stock, for example, /etc/init.d/openvpn script. Write my 
own, (one that checks
ESSID/IP and acts accordingly). Why? Well, I guess dynamic run-time 
dependencies are not something
Gentoo can provide right away. That's why when you modify an init.d script 
dependencies are analyzed
and re-built.

I also never experienced any stability problems with OpenVPN.

NFS works great for me, too. I don't see why I should not use it.

But going back to the original topic, which was not really about the pros and 
cons of OpenVPN and NFS. (Maybe I should have chosen another subject.)

How can I adjust init script dependencies based on ESSID / IP adress or 
network devices that are up and running?

Thanks in advance
Patrick
