Hello Durand......I will try what you suggested. The script i am usingis below:

#!/bin/sh
konsole -e telnet n7us.ne

But where would i insert this coding? :



if eth0 up
then exec telnet-ssl session
else exit

Would I put it right after the last line in my script? I posted a separate message about getting scripting help for different things. I have also been reading the help sites on web but cannot really find what I want. I want to understand the code you suggested and learn what each line does. I will try this and post backlater my results....bob
