Hi, I m looking info about a kind of autoexecutable. My problem is this. In my office we configured a proxie, but we need to run a script when we turn on the computer and log in to configure the internet correctly. It is a terminal script.

ifconfig en0 mtu 1492

u have to create a startup item, not too hard to realize.
u have to do all these steps logged as root.

- create a dir named mtu into /Library/StartupItems/
- create a new file named StartupParameters.plist into mtu folder
- write this code into the file:

{
  Description   = "mtu";
  Provides      = ("mtu");
  Requires      = ("Network");
  Uses          = ("Network");
  OrderPreference    = "Last";
}

- create a new file named mtu into mtu folder
- write this code into the file:

#!/bin/sh

. /etc/rc.common

StartService ()
{
	ConsoleMessage "Setting MTU"
	ifconfig en0 mtu 1492
}

RunService "$1"

- change this file to executable (chmod +x)
- restart your mac

use packagemaker from xtools, u can extract it with pacifist without having to install all the tools. I've done in this way and all my startup items now have an installer.
