I have network "profiles" set up, one for "Home" and one for "Dal" (Dal is an abbreviation of the name of the university I attend), since there are different wireless networks at both places and ... well, I can't really remember why I set them up. But they work so I have left them set up. Anyway, I noticed that when I select a network profile, one of the results is that the /etc/hosts file gets replaced with a link to either: /etc/sysconfig/networking/profiles/Home/hosts or /etc/sysconfig/networking/profiles/Dal/hosts That seems sensible. This would imply, though, that somewhere on my system, a script is run when I "change profiles" that replaces the hosts file with the version in the other profile's directory. Can anyone tell me where that script is? What I would *like* to do is modify the script so that it also copies a new sendmail.cf file and then restarts sendmail. Why? Because this would allow me to send my emails through sendmail on *my* machine, which would send through the correct SMTP server (my ISP's when I'm at home; my web hosting provider's when I'm at school) whenever I selected one of the different profiles. Why the heck would I want to bother? Mostly just curiousity now to see if it can be done. -- Trevor Smith // trevor@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
