Hi all,
When I use my laptop at home, I have a dialup connection,
but I also bring it into work and use ethernet there.
For dialup, I first have to su in as root and
"route del default" to get rid of eth0 as the default route.
For ethernet, again I first have to su in as root and
this time type "pump" to.... well, OK, I really don't
know what pump does; all I know is that I have to do
it before ethernet'll work.
My question is, what's the super-smooth way a real Linux
jock would setup his/her startup scripts so that he/she
would never have to worry about this? Or do I just suck it up?
Cheers,
Andy
