Create a script to setup the network card
Hello!

Trying to build a script which will do the following:

1.) Due to continued stalling after each reboot will consider the uptime of the server and if it is less than 30 sec to load the following settings on your network.

essentially

2.) What interests me primarily is to make a script which only runs to enter the following settings on your network.

--ip
--netmask
--default gw
--key
--essid

or in one way or another.

Code:
#!/bin/bash

if [ uptime <= 30sec ] ; then
echo setup network card

        ifconfig wlan0 192.168.1.101 netmask 255.255.255.0 up;
        route add default gw 192.168.1.1;
        iwconfig wlan0 essid linksys;
        iwconfig wlan0 key 123abcd123;
fi

Can you help me;because this script does not work.

sorry for my bad english.

Now I saw the category shell programming so let's move a mod if you can

ruptime

ruptime(1)							   User Commands							ruptime(1)

NAME

       ruptime - show host status of local machines

SYNOPSIS

       ruptime [-ar] [-l | -t | -u]

DESCRIPTION

       The  ruptime  utility  gives a status line like uptime (see uptime(1)) for each machine on the local network; these are formed from packets
       broadcast by each host on the network approximately every three minutes.

       Machines for which no status report has been received for 11 minutes are shown as being down.

       Normally, the listing is sorted by host name, but this order can be changed by specifying one of the options listed below.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       -a	       Counts even those users who have been idle for an hour or more.

       -r	       Reverses the sorting order.

       -l | -t | -u    These options are mutually exclusive. The use of one overrides the previous one(s).

		       -l	Sorts the display by load average.

		       -t	Sorts the display by up time.

		       -u	Sorts the display by number of users.

FILES

       /var/spool/rwho/whod.*	       data files
