What kind of Office Ethernet config do you use?
Manual, BootP, DHCP, etc?

DHCP swaps OK with PPP, but I'm still getting errors swaping to a manual
config.

This isn't a major problem, as I've set things up so that everyone else
in the office uses DHCP, but *I've* got a manual IP address so that only
myself & a mail server etc, can force external connections through our
Vicom ISDN gateway. :-)

I'm trying to write a double-clickable script for the mobile users to
swap to PPP, dial our ARA server, get & send mail, disconnect, then swap
back to office (DHCP) Ethernet config.

I guess it's out with ResEdit to try to supress the "Switch OK"
confirmation dialog....
