Hi KatolaZ,

I would suggest running setnet.sh through the shellcheck program to lint the script.

You can access it online[1] or it should be available in the repository[2].

It has support for checking portability issues[3] (eg. bashisms, POSIX compliance) depending on which shell is specified in the shebang line, which sounds like it would help here.

Tom
