Just a little personal irritant in need of a solution. Scenario I have a little script in Startup that auto-loads Firefox. My Firefox config keeps the last set of tabs (when session is saved). Frisbee (but I suspect all network managers) are invoked before the script in Startup. Consequently, ALL the Firefox tabs with internet web pages show Server Not Found. Question Is there a way to reverse the order of processing, i.e. so that the script directive is invoked after the network app connects? upupbb32, firefox 69.0.3 see sig for other details

Maybe put a sleep command at the start of the script. The script is activated, but it sleeps for a period of time before it actually does anything. How to Use the Linux Sleep Command to Pause a BASH Script https://www.lifewire.com/use-linux-sleep-command-3572060 Network connection does take some time to complete. Wired connection is usually quick. Wireless takes some time. I usually get to a working desktop and 10 to 30 seconds later the connection is made. _________________ The things they do not tell you, are usually the clue to solving the problem.

@bigpup, @jafadmin Thanks guys. [EDIT] Sleep worked. Initial setting of 60 may have been too long. Think I'll try jafadmin's rather than fiddling with the number for sleep. [EDIT-2] At first glance, the script seems to work also. I'll mark the thread as SOLVED. _________________ B.K.
