This is a problem which started recently possibly with some security
update in 10.4.11. I have an application which creates a PPP network
location. This application uses the System Configuration Framework to
create a new Set and add a PPP Service. This code has worked for a
number
of years.
Recently, something on OSX has changed. Our application continues to
work as
it always has, but once we add the new Set/Service, if the user
opens the
Network Preferences, a sheet drops down with the following Alert:
³Your
network settings have been changed by another application.². I could
live
with this if you hit the OK button and the sheet just dismissed
itself. But,
and here¹s the problem, when the Alert is dismissed, it drops down
again !
The user is in an infinite loop where the Alert continues to be re-
displayed
no matter how many times they hit the OK button. So, my question is:
Has the
System Config Framework changed in terms of the API¹s that need to
be called
to create a network Set / Service ? What do I need to do to get rid
of the
Alert and prevent it from coming back when the OK button is hit ?
Alec,
I don't know if this is related to your problem, but I saw this
earlier today, about PPP changes with Tiger Security Update 2008-06.
