i created a small enhancement for netcfg to support "after connect-commands". e.g. i often need
to execute some apps to connect to the internet, like vpnc.

simply add EXECUTE_COMMAND="command" to your /etc/network-profiles/foo
e.g. EXECUTE_COMMAND="vpnc"

in /usr/bin/netcfg you need to add the following on line 183
(after cp $PROFILE_DIR/$1 $STATE_DIR/$INTERFACE and before stat_done)
if there isnt a command in the profile, nothing happens.


if [ "$EXECUTE_COMMAND" ]; then
echo "Executing custom command..."
$EXECUTE_COMMAND
if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
echo "Custom after connect-command failed"
fi
fi

NOTE:
there is missing something, which "kills" the executed program on
deactivating the profile or changing network.
