Hi Quinn,

Finally I've had the time to have a look at what you suggested above. Have
run into some errors compiling the sample app in MoreNetworkSetup archive.

/****************************************************************/

'void **'

kOTCfgUserVisibleNamePref, &entityName, &junkSize);

I'm running Codewarrior 7.0 under OSX10.1.4.

Back to my original problem:
I've had a read over the relevant code but I am getting myself lost. (it's
been a while since I've done any serious C programming, let alone tackle
OpenTransport).

Do I need to iterate over the configurations to tell what is the active
config set? Is there a quick way to retrieve the info I need from the active
TCPIP set?

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers
Dave
