One bug here:
As a simple fix, perhaps the first step is: (1) Have the chain launcher refuse to start if one of its tasks won't (saying "fix your IP settings first"). I forget if this might ever affect scheduled tasks -- I think not (since you can't schedule a chain?). But if so, perhaps (2) we should have a way of server-to-client transfer of IP settings for single-user mode, so end users don't have to worry?

We do attempt to do both these things. With 1) the chain initially refuses to start but the subWindowFinishedClosing
signal is still handled when the user hits the back button and then the tasks in the chain start up until the one that was prohibited. I think this is easy to fix.
With 2) we leave the IP settings for the administrator to set up on the server side and these are sent to the client so the end user shouldn't have to worry.
