I tried to change the resources directly but the changes don't stick. This was my first approach. I diffed the resources before and after manually changing the settings and there was only three minor differences. Is there a trick to modifying the TCP/IP preferences ? If I could do that I could solve my problem pretty quick.

Matt,

You should be able to do what you want with NSL. Unfortunately I am not
familiar enough with MNS to help you -- hopefully someone else can chime in.

Be aware that NSL is available beginning with Mac OS 8.5, which I think is
later than your target legacy OS. You may find it easier to ignore NSL and
directly modify the TCP/IP control panel configuration resources in its
preference file. I think that the data format is unchanged from Mac OS
7.6.1 through 9.2.2. And we all know it will never change in the future. :-)

An added benefit of directly manipulating the preference file is that you
avoid the outrageously slow NSL.

Maybe others can share some opinions on this strategy.

Regards...eric
