Monitoring Network Status

Hi,
I need to write some code that monitors the Mac's Internet connectivity. That is, when the Mac connects to the Internet, I need to be able to start things up, and then when it disconnects, shut some things down. OSX seems to have some really great functionality here in the form of the System Configuration Framework, and although I've been able to make some things work by trial-and-error based on the headers, I can't find any other documentation than the Framework overview (which has no API details). Is there more/better documentation somewhere??

Also, this application needs to run under OS9 as well. Are there OpenTransport API facilities similar to OSX's System Configuration Framework, that I can use to request notifications for changes in Internet connectivity? Can I do this as an InterfaceLib application to support Macs running 8.x as well?? Since this version of the app won't run on OSX, would it be better to do it with InterfaceLib or CarbonLib??

Thanks in advance,
