Apple Script Question

[zaxcom]

I want to write a script that enters the following command at Start up in the Terminal:

sudo sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.rfc1323=0

But I cant make it work.

Better yet I would like to change this variable permanently so I never have to enter it again, can I do that?

Thanks

I believe you'll need to edit your /etc/rc file as root (sudo pico /etc/rc). I edited that file for broadband optimization. You'll want to add that line at the end of the file between:

SystemStarter ${VerboseFlag}

and

exit 0

I could be mistaken but by doing this you can leave out the 'sudo' from the command you want to enter.

Just curious as to whether you tried this and whether or not it worked for ya…

yes, that did it. in fact I added several items to that file and now they all are set at startup up. thanks.
