Create /etc/init.d/net_login. Insert your commands.
From a console:Code:mii-tool -F 10baseT-HD pon

Every time I log on the net I have to type in mii-tool -F 10baseT-HD then pon.
Where can I put this line so it happens automatically when I boot?

Noticed message during boot
"Configuring network interfaces:/etc/network/interfaces:14ption with empty value."
Is this significant?
Rename S33net_login to S99net_login to force starting the script at least.
If it isīnt successfull:
Create a link to /etc/init.d/net_login at your desktop
(right mouse click on th desktop, "New - Link to program" [strings could be wrong because I know only the german version])
to start the script by one mouse click.
You can copy this link to ~/.kde/autostart for automatic execution.
I hope, this helps a little bit.

How can my normal users get the permission to get on the net and also to use mii-tool as stated previously?
If you set mii-tool and pon suid then users should be able to use them, NOTE with suid set anyone should be able to use them, as in possible security risk! A lot of people don't like running stuff suid.
ex:
andchmod +s /sbin/mii-tool
HTHchmod +s /usr/bin/pon
