   so create your own netstart which does
        /etc/rc.d/network start
        /etc/rc.d/pppd start
        /etc/rc.d/dhclient start
   or whatever...


but that's the beauty of /etc/netstart to me... i don't need to know
exactly what goes in there.  while i will probably end up mostly just
needing `/etc/rc.d/network start' most of the time, i will miss having
/etc/netstart.  my fingers have been doing that for 7 years now.
