Check out "sysctl", it lets you change many things that are done by the startup scripts. For example: sysctl -a |grep rfc shows: net.inet.tcp.rfc1323: 0 net.inet.tcp.rfc1644: 0 sysctl -w lets you write values, while the system is running, including tcp extensions: sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.rfc1323=0 sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.rfc1644=0 It's a neat little interface to kernel doodads...
