Actually - you've hit the nail on the head with your solution there. I
have the same situation, where I am constantly traversing between two
networks - but I have the option to use the airport on one and the
hardwired ethernet on the other. So the network INTERFACES are kept
seperate.
Not everyone has the luxury of doing that. (But if you can, it works
really well! :-) )
Apart from that, if you are using DHCP in both places (and cannot get
that changed), log in and start X before connecting to any network. This
means that the host security is mapped to localhost (as someone has
previously posted.)
This seems to work (in my limited experimentation) quite happily as well.
Hope this helps answer your question.
Best regards,

I use my Laptop at work and home, with multiple desktops

so when I go from work to home (and vice versa), X11 doesn't
function properly, and I have to close all X11 windows and re-start
X11.
Is there a parameter or command I can use to change my
network settings without having to restart X11?
Thanks for any advice....

I have no problem with this either... logon at work with ethernet, and
then home with airport, and just can access a remote machine via ssh in
xterm without changing any settings...
