Re: Network configuration



Must have deleted the original message from Subba allready so I'm

The networkhelper script from Openlysecure.org is great for this

I personally use it on my laptop to setup 3 different profiles (work, 
home, offline) so that I can store different network configurations to 
use for wherever I'm at.
