OK, then my recommended solution is to populate the popup with the
list of service IDs read from the current set in the SCF preferences.
This will include user-visible names for each of the services (ie
typically one service per port, but not always--10.2 allows you to
configure multiple services on one Ethernet). You can use the
service IDs from SCF preferences to look up the service in SC dynamic
store to find the current IP address associated with the service
(which is what you'd pass to bind).
When you store the service IDs in your preferences, make sure that
you also store the parent set ID. As a rule, service IDs only make
sense within the context of a set. That is, if the user changes the
active set, there's no point looking at your service ID preferences.
How does that sound?
