Hi Joachim,
right, I do the same everyday twice when I connect at the office and
then back at home. I need to switch pidgin, firefox, thunderbird,
occasionally synaptic, and all the day I have to resolve where am I when
I work from the shell and deciding to set the environment
http_proxy&ftp_proxy :-).
It is pretty annoying and I hope I will find a time to solve it. I bet
it will be something with g/mconf and d-bus calls.
Good luck!
Vaclav
