Names! Names! ;-)

I've written a script that disables
Rendezvous:

2) The script creates a Startup Script that should write a system.log entry
reporting the disabled service but does not work. Any ideas why?


Because, unless I'm wrong, the script to be executed has by convention to bear the same name as its enclosing folder.
So, upon startup, when encountering a folder named "mDNSResponder", the system expects to find an executable named "mDNSResponder", not "Disabler".
Of course, same holds when running SystemStarter.

As you seem to be in a context you have the needed rights, you might try to rename the original "mDNSResponder" script (e.g. "mDNSResponder_Apple") and create your script as "mDNSResponder" instead of "Disabler".
Hmm...


3) iChat insists on connecting to Rendezvous at start, there appears to be
no way to prevent the ensuing error message.


I haven't yet used iChat very much. But I believe to have somewhere encountered a setting (not a preference) related to using RendezVous or not. Or is this just a false memory?

HTH,
Axel
