No, I'm talking about catering for those of us that use Linux and want to
setup an internet connection easily.
The ISP's are providing CDs in every garage, supermarket, street corner
and fast food outlet in the country containing *windoze only* (OK, Eircom
Net has Mac software as well...) that contains these numbers in their
installation prog.
What I'm proposing is a script that will ask which ISP you want to setup
(and hopefully include all the Irish ISPs) and do the donkey work.
I'm not suggesting *just* doing the Bt ones or *just* the Eircom ones.
