PPP/Auto DNS



I am in the process of writing a newt based PPP configurator including
the auto DNS configuration feature. I'm starting with the newt based
application because it will tie into the RH 6.0 installer that we
currently use and can also be called from the command line in a console.
I should have the newt based app ready in a short while barring any
snags.

I will soon start on an X Window version of the same app.

I have been thinking about other such projects and the thing I'm
thinking about is the names of such programs. For instance. Microsoft
calls them Wizards, and there are a few other 'catch words' out there
that others are using, but I am drawing a blank right now on some of
the other names. But I hope you understand what I mean. What shall we
call them in Indy? Something like 'Genie'? No, that one is probably
already used. We need something more 'Indy specific'. Any thoughts
anyone?

Other things can be set-up or configured in a similar manner giving
the user something to brag about in Indy. We could develop a whole
series of such programs. Thats one thing *I* would like to see more of
in Linux. After Windows this is what the user has come to expect.
Suggestions on other programs?
