I wouldn't say, that uml switch is badly documented. The code is straight forward and well written (I had to understand it to program my replacement uml_switch2 (http://www.uxu.ch/uxu/software/uml_switch2) I fear, you need to replace the daemon uml-networkadapter with something more powerful. By the way, Jeff has some ideas for additional changes in the uml-networkadapter that you could implement too ;-) Regards, Felix I think I need to > add some set from inside uml, but I really don't know > how to do...I'm pretty new to linux..... > Can someone help me? > Thank you in advance! > > Maria > > > ______________________________________________________________________ > Yahoo!
