I occasionally need to switch my ethernet cable to a direct (ADSL)
connection rather than going through the corporate filrewalls (or not
as the case might be :-). With windows the configuration of eth0 it
update automatically when I switch cables, with various linuxes it may
be update automatically otherwise /etc/init.d/network restart
accomplishes this action.<br>
With Ubuntu 5.10, first there is no /etc/init.d/network, it seems to
ahve been replaced by /etc/init.d/networking and secondly this does not
bring up eth0. I am left with just lo0. A reboot with the same cable
connected brings the system up on the non-corporate n/w.<br>
<br>
Any ideas how I can accomplish automatically or at least without reboot?<br>
