I don't usually dig around with the terminal, but I have been puzzled with the local host behavior on my Mac for a long time. It works in some conditions and doesn't in others. My question isn't about the localhost, but about scutil
.
I tried this out scutil
but it seems like a blackbox to me. It sets and gets the data I ask it to, but where does it store the information? What does scutil
mean?
sc
inscutil
stands for system configuration. If you typeman scutil
in Terminal, you can find out a lot more about the options available.
