Hi Rod,
Cc Current

I have improved my modification for /etc/netstart somewhat, & am using it,
but I still can't test it completely, as although I have a 2nd nfs mounted
system here now, I don't share an nfs mounted /usr
(all my existing bins are 486, the system visiting me is a 386)
Perhaps you (or another NFS user such as Nate) would care to review or comment ?

# Prepare an 'ed' script
# to allow /etc/hostname.* to have '^#' delimited comments, and blank lines.
# ('ed' used as 'usr/bin/grep' on nfs systems is not yet mounted).
hostname_tmp=/tmp
hostname_ed=hostname.ed
# The next 4 lines & rm below could be avoided with a permanent $hostname_ed.
echo "g/^#/d"	>  $hostname_tmp/$hostname_ed
echo "g/^$/d"	>  $hostname_tmp/$hostname_ed
echo "p"	>> $hostname_tmp/$hostname_ed
echo "q"	>> $hostname_tmp/$hostname_ed

for i in /etc/hostname.*
	do	# {
	ifn=`expr $i : '/etc/hostname\.\(.*\)'`	# ifn gets ed0, sl0 etc
	if [ -e /etc/hostname.$ifn ]; then
		if [ -e /etc/start_if.$ifn ]; then
			sh /etc/start_if.$ifn $ifn
		fi
		ed -s - /etc/hostname.$ifn		\
			< $hostname_tmp/$hostname_ed	\
			> $hostname_tmp/hostname.$ifn.tmp
		ifconfig $ifn `cat $hostname_tmp/hostname.$ifn.tmp`
		ifconfig $ifn			# show status
		rm $hostname_tmp/hostname.$ifn.tmp
	fi
	done	# }
rm $hostname_tmp/$hostname_ed
