internet connection manager
i am running kubuntu edgy. i set up my pppoe dsl connection with the command "sudo pppoeconf" and my internet connection works and it's loaded at boot time.
however, i sometimes need to disconnect my dsl and i don't feel like opening a terminal everytime and writing: "sudo poff/pon dsl provider". i'd like to have some application in the taskbar which i can right click and select connect/disconnect. in mandriva, suse as well i think, there is this option and the taskbar icon looks like this. screenshot provided. is there anyway i can make that possible in kubuntu? what's the name of that application? http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/1...hot1oj0.th.png |
If you're running KDE then make a shortcut pointing to
Code:
kdesu ifconfig eth0 down KDE will prompt you for a root password. You can make another one for Code:
kdesu ifconfig eth0 up Code:
aterm -e sudo ifconfig eth0 down |
