[systemd-devel] network consuming user services

Hi,

I want to start some user services which need a working network connection.
This includes services as

* "fetchmail --idle" to receive mails
* ssh tunnel with autossh
* dyndns update

I recently switched to systemd 44 on arch linux but after one day of try and
error as well as manpage reading I am not sure that this is in the scope of
systemd.

The best solution could be to hear on dbus, if the NetworkManager sends an
"online event". The services need to be finished if the network is down and
started again if we are online again.

Are there existing service files which solve a similar or the same issue?

Thanks a lot and best regards

Sebastian Tramp
