> 1) Ethernet on 192.168.x.0 LAN in my apartment > 2) Ethernet on 192.168.y.0 LAN in my office > 3) Dial-in, PPP, to the registered net in the office All three of the above are variations on the same theme. What I do for 1 and 2 is that I: 1) Use the office IP 192.168.y.0 has my primary number. 2) Add an IP alias of 192.168.x.0. When I move between locations it becomes a simple job of changing the default route and resolv.conf. I do this by hand, but it wouldn't take more than a few lines of shell script to semi-automate it. I havn't done much playing with step three. The PPP connection can I believe also change the default route and resolv.conf for you at startup. I havn't had to worry about the not on net case. Maybe somebody else has a nifty idea for this one.
