Netprofiler is a software that can write network settings into config files.
Netprofiler saves the settings of network devices into files with appropriate names for each device into a folder with a name specified by the user.
These are called netprofiles. It is then easy to change the network settings to those saved in the profiles.
Netprofiler is released under the GNU Public License version 2 or any higher version if avaliable.
What's New in This Release:
Added a checkif_root function to install.sh to make life easier for users who want to at least view the help for the installer.
Added checks for hostx in case host from bind-utils isn't installed to resolv hostnames for get_defaultroute.
Added masked filtering as a config file option. When enabled it excludes any devices that start with the device names in filtered.list. For example if eth appeared in filtered.list then no ethernet devices would be configured by netprofiler despite those devices being present in the profile that was being activated.
Root permission checks are now only executed when activating a profile or generating one. This allows normal users to list profiles, see the --help messages, see the current settings etc.
Added path checks for id. (used to be just /bin/id but added /usr/bin/id ).
Changed default permissions for the netprofiler script to 755 to enable users to run it.
Big thanks go to Bogdan Duda for spotting and fixing these bugs as well as writing the patch which included most of these features. Cheers!
