It would be nice to have a button on the client that
runs a script on the server. For example: I use my
server/gateway with linecontrol alsa as a mailserver
for the local network.
I could do this with a cronjob, but it would be nice if
i could start the script from the client. Maybe also a
notification when the script is ready.

Even better would be integration with fetchmail :)

    You could use a special line to exec a script on the server.
    Just create a line with the con_type file and call your script in script_up.
    Your script will have to create the file that is used by con_status_file at start
    up and remove it when exiting.
    Now the line will be online while the script is executing and go offline when
    it's ready.

    Yes I thought of that too, it would be fine to have some
    user defined scripts
