Re: [newbie] I need to choose from a multiple network profiles at a booting my MDK9. HOW?

2002-11-27 Thread Derek Jennings
A script placed in ~/bash_profile will execute when you log in, but I do not 
know how to select a networking profile from a script. You would also have to 
consider how you would tell the system it was being used at Home or Office?

I think I would just use the drop down list of profiles in the net_monitor GUI 
when I wanted to change the access method :)

 Ok Derek, I will proceed with your advises about Cooker`s softwares.

 Suppose that I develop 3 profiles with Network Connect GUI
 of Mdk9 as you sad : 1=Home / 2=Office-A / 3=Office-B.

 My big doubt is how can I inform (setting up) some of them at
 boot (login) time ?

 I need to power-on my Notebook, waiting for loading OS and
 than, at Login fase, I need to define that my environment (network
 settings) will be X, or Y or Z. Understood ?

 Is there a way to do this?

 TIA,

 Marcos Nobre

 This is the right (best) way to have (install / setup) Multiple Profiles

 Thanks in advance,

 Installing Cooker packages is likely to cause problems, unless you are
  know what you are doing, and should be avoided.
 If you want to define multiple profiles you can do that quite easily in
 Mandrake 9.0 using the Network Connect GUI.
 If you want to select a profile you can do that using the
 /usr/sbin/net_monitor application which is the same as the 'Internet' GUI
  on your desktop.
 If you want to use net_monitor without having to give root password you
  can read how to do that here
