laptop networking startup question

[Tim T.]

Hi,

Before I start reinventing the wheel: Has anybody ever seen a package that
might solve the following problem:

- Laptop with onboard wireless, that needs to be turned on by software
before I can actually load ndiswrapper
- Can be connected to either my own home network (dhcp), home wireless
network, office network, and
occasionally standalone

What I'd like to do is select the type of network connection at boot time,
including the option to just leave the network of..

I've looked at the default /etc/init.d/networking script, but that 'just'
calls ifup.. I'm not sure I can start an interactive script from there..

Suggestions are welcome

TimT
