How to change your IP
Authored by: mblakele on Apr 24, '03 12:11:41PM

Here's a related command: scutil

Reminiscent of niutil, scutil is an interactive console for configd settings. Fire it up and type 'help' for some online help (cryptic, unfortunately).

Here's how to pull the current location from scutil. This one-liner appeared in a UseNet posting by Stefan Haller:

scutil <<- EOT | awk 'BEGIN { FS = " : "} /UserDefinedName/ { print $2 } END { }'
   open
   show Setup:/
   close
   quit
EOT
