Hi,

(To Yannai Gonzcaro)
>Take a look at atalkd. Look for the parts that mention "ninterfaces".

PMYI, I did exactly that, in my atalkd-ppp, so it doesn't switch between
routing when a ppp interface is up and no routing when the ppp is down,
when i only have one ethernet interface.

It didn't quite work on the ethernet side: usually the mac would notice
the zones when i switch to ethertalk in the network control panel but
drop the zones pretty soon and ignore them.

I haven't looked into it very much. Might be this: don't i have to
send a route list with each zone about which tell a segment? With one
interface, that
route list would be empty, which could be flagged as an error by other
nodes. In this case the better quick hack (for linux) would be to
configure an interface with the dummy device.
