[OpenIndiana-discuss] nwam

[Jonathan Adams]

NWAM is a tool with a specific purpose ... if you don't have that need
then NWAM seems to be just a hindrance ...

Before it existed I had scripts to plumb interfaces and bring up
wireless networks ... you might be better off creating your own
rc2.d/rc3.d script using dladm to connect your wireless if it's always
going to be the same

NWAM takes complete control of interfaces and stops you plumbing extra
interfaces or using the ifconfig addif commands to add virtual
interfaces easily (which is a big Linux killer IMO)

Sorry, blathering ...
