I Know, you're absolutly right...
Yes, this was my first thinking, to modify the scripts.
But there are Strings, that have a relation to "eth"...
So I decided to do this "bad" hack, prefer this than get in troubles
with modifying to much...
The same Prob is, if one uses hostap as wifi-driver... there is the
Interface named wlan0...
Perhaps in MNF3 you can rename the config-vars
from i.e. Eth0IP to IFace0IP and add a entry like IFace0Name="eth0".
Let me say, this is my 1 cent :-)
But this changes are not done in 5 minutes, I think one had to recode
many scripts, templates and so on...

there for i had to search for the Events belong to the relevant part and
add a entry for the templates i want to proceed.. am i right?
Or can i define new Events? But then, how tell i the backend to "raise"
this new Events automaticly and not by a user-defined script?
