You can't set them directly through the API because doing so is a privileged operation. You need to do that through a helper tool.

The SCF documentation is abysmal - there is no clear explanation anywhere of how to assemble the correct keys - it's trial and error until you 'get it'.

My advice is to use MoreIsBetter library to do the heavy lifting for you - write a helper tool, use MIB to load and execute it, then do all the privileged work in the tool. This is how Apple recommends to do it.

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone here is familiar with the SystemConfiguration framework,

specifically the Dynamic Store key/value stuff.

I am trying to set the Proxy settings programatically, but don't know what key/value to set when using the function that sets the key/values.

I have been able to create a notification for myself to be notified when the Proxy settings change, like through system preferences. And I have also been able to get the the Proxy settings,

but don't know how to set them, so is there a complete list of key/values to get at in the Dynamic Store/System configuration framework?

thanks,
Matt
