As far as your underlying TCP/IP setup, this can/should all be done at the server level. I'm doing the same with my laptop here at work and home. My dhcp server(s) issue the IP address, gateway and nameservers to the laptop, based on it's MAC address. Any other protocols you are running on top of this should be able to be configured via schemes. Alternately, if you used cardmgr with PCMCIA and you want to define these things at the client side, you can go that route too, with schemes. On my other laptop, I have it this way, before I learned the flexibility of dhcpd. I've been migrating all my machines now to get their settings from the server, as it lets me have one place to define gateway and nameservers for a number of machines. Stew Benedict
