hey yes you can access it through terminal or do some funny stuff in
the gui to get at it but terminal is your fried with cd /etc and then
use something like
open -E file.plist to edit

do something rather complex and have found instructions on how to
do it, but it involves editing a plist that is located in a sub
directory of the /etc dir. Now, if memory serves, /etc is
something that only a root user should get to. For the life of me,
I can't figure out how to get to the plist to edit it, or even how
to enable a root user. The main OS/X help seems to have an entry
for this if you search for "root," but when I try to bring it up, I
just get a see the same page that opens when you first activate help.
Assistence welcome. *smile*
