Thanks a lot. Nevertheless, this is an idea...What i am looking for is wheather there exists a built-in-feature within linux/fedora for this issue. is there someting built-in in linux/fedora that says "this user has logged in, i have to execute the following scripts/programs automatically immediately" ? > > mmmmhhh... may be you can try columbus. > > This script, with configuration file, is capable to 'know' in what net you > are. For example, you can stay in a LAN where the default gateway is > 192.168.2.1 and mac address AA:BB:CC:DD.
