[NTLUG:Discuss] Red Hat netcfg question(s)...

[Fred James]

I have a laptop with one NIC, that follows me around.
One location dictates that I use a static IP and default route, and another
insist that I be a DHCP client.
I am guessing that I can use the "Clone" feature on the "Interfaces" tab in the
"Network Configurator" (i.e.: netcfg), and then (de)activate interfaces as
needed, though I have not tried this as yet.

I would very much appreciate hearing from anyone who has had any experience or
success with this idea, or could explain the difference between "Alias" and
"Clone" in this situation.
Thanks.
