One way would be to configure run level 4 for home use, and run level 5 for use on the road. You could then have two entries in your grub.conf - one for normal run level 5 boot, and one for run level 4 use. You would have to use chkconfig to have the proper services running at the correct levels.2008/2/17 Mikkel L. Ellertson <mikkel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>:It sounds like you are always connected to the same network. If so, especially if you are using Ethernet, you would be better off using the network service instead of the NetworkManager service to bring up the network. You can change this using the System --> Administration --> Services menu entry. As a quick check to see if this will work for you, you can boot to run level 3 instead of run level 5. At run level 3, the network service is used. Mikkel --I move around quite a lot, and use different lan and wireless networks. I need NetworkManager service because of it's easy to use wireless feature. When I'm at home there I connect to my samba shares but it would be painfull to switch all the time between network service and NM service :( Is there any way to fix this?
Another possibility, but one I have no experience with, would be to have NetworkManagerDispatcher run a script that mounts the Samba shares when you connect to your home network, and unmounts them as part of the shutdown process. This has the advantage of making the change without rebooting or running telinit as root. But I am not sure exactly how to do it... I suspect that you can have it run one script when connecting to a specific network, and another when disconnecting from it.
