[NBLUG/talk] Newbie questions about systemd, Fedora 19

[Steve S.]

Starting a terminal session -- or any other specific tool -- is pretty
standard stuff for "do this when I login" automation.

Modifying network settings is a bit more exotic, though.  I mean, I
can definitely see some purpose to it -- if it's a workstation you'd
like to have offline and essentially un-hackable while you're away,
turning the network port(s) off when you logout and on when you login
seems a decent step (although there's always the risk of relying on
those steps and not adequately hardening the system).  But, in
general, most *NIXes presume that network settings are boot-time
configurations, not login-centric.

FWIW and all that...
