Hi Folks, I'm using CentOS 4.3 on my Desktop-Computer. I've been switched from Suse: I'm using for Internet-Connection DSL (Germany). It will be started at boottime. But how can I connect/disconnet this connection without using a GUI during the Computer is runnig . Is there a command(-line-tool)? On Suse there was a program called "cinternet" that fits for this task. An other question: I've running a server in a small Network with Suse 9.0. I want to switch this server to CentOS because of stability and long support. Because CentOS is a "clone" of RHEL I've heared in december 2006 there will be a new version of RHEL. How long will it takes until CentOS is adapted to this new version? Is it recommendable to wait for new CentOS? I dont want setup the server two times in the next 12 month ;-) Thx Timothy

CentOS 2.x is still supported! You _don't_ have to upgrade just because there is a new version.> Thx > Timothy
