What's wrong there?
Try asking your shell's manpage. I guess colons aren't supposed to appear in variable's names. Issue this command at an interactive prompt and you will get the same result (BTW: You snipped the full error message above not saying _which_ command cannot be found. This could have given some clue, maybe.). One solution seems to be substituting special characters in the device name, but this had to be done for LHS (variable names) only -- the RHS still needs an unmodified value. But using an aliased interface as the outside device is questionable, anyway. What do you expect in terms of protection, when the inside still shares the same wire to the outside and could get there bypassing the router? So this might even be by design not to expect aliases in the script, although these conditions could be tested and rejected with a message before failing for syntactical reasons. virtually yours 82D1 9B9C 01DC 4FB4 D7B4 61BE 3F49 4F77 72DE DA76 Gerhard Sittig true | mail -s "get gpg key" Gerhard.Sittig@gmx.net -- If you don't understand or are scared by any of the above ask your parents or an adult to help you.
