Will Puppy 4.3 have sudo by default?
It's not safe to run as root by default.

If it works, then a bash alias to save keystrokes

alias renet='/etc/rc.d/rc.network'

Thank you, that was it.

That is the network wizard i was talking about.

I have to change my mac address sometimes but I don't know the command to restart the network from the terminal.
In Ubuntu it is but it does not work in Puppy.
I can restart the it from the network wizard but it would be easier from the terminal.
