But as I said, I ran the script from a screen session, so that makes me wonder why the execution was aborted. But is running '/etc/rc.d/netif restart'' known to cause problems? I think I shouldn't have to use scripts like these just to change a setting on the network interface. Kind regards, -- Bram Schoenmakers BOFH Excuse #8: static buildup
